your name amuses me
as it escapes my lips
your fingers bruise me
as again your fist slips
these words she said aloud
these words she said in vain

how deep my love had grown
these words she said aloud
these words she said in vain
in front of the crowd
out in the pouring rain
your name is not for me
i have paid the cost
your name was never free
so much time i have lost
these words she said aloud
these words she said in vain
emptiness fills the crowd
her pain remains the same
