If I said your name
And meant another face
Would you still look back
Hoping for a mistake
Or would you bury the hope
On the spot, with your pride
And wait till you sob alone
Thinking of me at night
Remembrance is a memory due
That broken hearts must owe
Grey and black on outer walls
Unfettered down below
So when a family you begin
With a man and an offspring
Would your boy share my name
And would you let him sing?
And meant another face
Would you still look back
Hoping for a mistake
Or would you bury the hope
On the spot, with your pride
And wait till you sob alone
Thinking of me at night
Remembrance is a memory due
That broken hearts must owe
Grey and black on outer walls
Unfettered down below
So when a family you begin
With a man and an offspring
Would your boy share my name
And would you let him sing?
