For what’s there in a name, A line that has been immortal Since long before the age of cheap *** and roadside motels, Still stands true In the age of golden whiskey And sunset kisses, a little too risky. For a name can make scars bleed Open up wounds which had long been sealed. A hit to the heart can prove fatal Just like the story about Romeo that’s now a fable. So what name is it, in the story of your life That made you drink enough to forget your own for a while?
