I forget so many things.
I forgot the way my sister and I played when we were young.
I forgot why I thought I could teach my brother how to read.
I forgot how my mother broke her neck and I guess she nearly died.
I forgot how my dad had cancer and we went to see him in the hospital.
All I remember now is you.
I remember the first time I met you and I didn't know I would love you.
I remember the first time I said sorry to you and meant it.
I remember when I saw your car for the first time and I thought it was cute.
I remember the first time I talked to you on the phone.
I remember how you made your best friend laugh, and I envied that immensely.
I remember the way you made the stools symmetrical in the kitchen.
I remember holding your hands in my hands before they felt my body.
I remember the patience you had with me while teaching me your song.
I remember the first time I wanted to touch your hair.
I remember the first time I wanted you to touch mine.
I remember the way the sun hit your face and made me think of the future.
I remember the first time I wanted to kiss you.
I remember the first time I held your head and how it gave me butterflies.
I remember the first time we kissed and I couldn't believe it.
I remember the first time we joked about feelings.
I remember how scared I was you were kidding.
I forget so many things, but I will never forget you.

And I'm sorry about ever knocking on his door.
You deserve better,
Better than me.
And I'm aching for you.
You deserve better,
Better than this.
And I'm trying not to cry in your arms.
You deserve better,
Better than us.

My evermore and everlast, to be yours, to be true.
To be fabled a task unconquered- lay with lions and kiss them too.
I will spend a thousand years doting on your every move.
My evermore and everlast, to be yours, to be true.
