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 couldn't last
But oh a friend
Like a fool mentions your name
Sunny days, drunken nights
You smile and say: Oh it's alright
But oh the cold, cold rain
At the mention of your name
Forgive me, please
If I shrug my shoulders
When I put my friend 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, darling still the same
At the mention of your name
