Shame Is My Name

Since you recognize; I feel the same Now that you're here, please say my name Say it soft, say it sweet However you say it, say what you mean Shakespeare once wrote, "What's in a name?" It could mean something if you say it with shame So when you're with me look to the sky That way you see the stars in my eyes When you are with me don't make a scene Just hold my hand and say what you mean Lets not wrap ourselves in this old game Promise when you're with me, you'll say my name
