I'm not ashamed |
|
To say that i've loved you well |
|
I'm not ashamed |
|
To let you know |
|
I'm just a name that's all |
|
Scratched upon your wall |
|
You've used it well but what the hell |
|
That's what walls are for |
|
I'm not ashamed |
|
To listen to the fast-fallin' rain |
|
In the morning upon my window |
|
I'm not afraid to cry |
|
I'm not ashamed to try |
|
To be your friend once again |
|
'cause that's what's friends are for |
|
Friends are for sorting out the hang-ups that we hide |
|
Walls are for shutting out the love we feel inside |
|
I'm not ashamed no to talk it over once again |
|
To rearrange my vocabulary |
|
But i can't seem to find |
|
Any words to change your mind |
|
Because i left them all behind |
|
And that's what words are for |
|
Words are for explaining the mistakes we might have made |
|
Names are for calling when there's nothing left to say |
|
I'm not ashamed, no, to say that i've loved you well |
|
I'm not ashamed, and yet i know |
|
I'm just a name, that's all |
|
Scratched upon your wall |
|
You've used it well, but what the hell |
|
That's what walls are for |
|
I'm not ashamed of wearing out my old grey socks |
|
Chasing you around the back woods |
|
I'm not ashamed to darn |
|
Nor to proud to find some yarn |
|
To sew them up once again |
|
'cause that's what socks are for |
