[Verse 1] Maybe I do only have half a heart And I'm sorry, I can't play both parts See my blood is stagnant on my right side And my body abides [Chorus] But what is in a name Whatever we call a rose, it smells the same, oh Believe me I've tried to drink in the scent It was time ill-spent [Verse 2] My dear apothecary It seems that it's all that I need Dear God, please give me something To make the pain cease [Chorus] But what is in a name Whatever we call a rose, it smells the same, oh Believe me, I've tried to drink in the scent It was time ill-spent [Bridge] I would stab myself in the heart Just so I could feel the same But no, it ain't no use, it's a different kind of pain Well k** me with a kiss, forbidden Capulet And no we won't' be revered with no golden monuments Just dirt [Chorus] But what is in a name Whatever we call a rose, it smells the same, oh Believe me, I've tried to drink in the scent It was time ill-spent
