Lyrics

I'm not ashamed 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 used it well, but what the hell
That's what walls are for
I'm not afraid to listen to the fast falling 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
That's what 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
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 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 used it well, but what the hell
That's what walls are for
