Somebody Mentioned Your Name Lyrics by William Bell

The Complete Stax-Volt Singles 1959-1968

0

[Verse 1]
Somebody
(Somebody, someone)
Mentioned your name
(Mentioned your name)
And, my heart
(My heart, yes, my heart)
My heart felt the pain
(Felt the pain)
I overheard the conversation
It seemed like you gained new fame
Someone
(Someone)
Yes, someone, mentioned your name
(Mentioned your name)
[Chorus]
The faces and the voices around me
All seemed like yours
And, it's so hard, yes, it's so hard
So hard for me to endure, yeah
[Verse 2]
I know
(I know)
Somehow
(Somehow)
I'll have to face all the pain
And, hope
(And, hope)
That no one
(No one)
Mentions your name
[Chorus]
The faces and the voices around me
All seemed like yours
And, it's so hard, yes, it's so hard
So hard for me to endure, yeah
[Verse 3]
I know
(I know)
Somehow
(Somehow)
I'll have to face all the pain
And, hope
(And, hope)
That no one
(No one)
Mentions your name
[Outro]
No, no one mentions your name
And, everything'll be alright
If no one mentions your name
