The mention of your name

Time goes by

And every single tear

It must have well run dry

And the lonely nights

Become a strange accepted way



And the years go past

Just like the old song says

The pain with time has healed

It could not last



But oh a friend

Like a fool mentions your name



Sunny days, drunken nights

You smile and say It's all right

But oh the cold, cold rain

At the mention of your name



Forgive me please

If I shrug my shoulders

When I put my friends at ease

As I get older

It's not that I don't feel colder than before

Oh I've become so good at hiding

What I feel without confiding

It's still the same

At the mention of your name
