Forget the fleeting sideways glance
Forget that kiss, the stars, our dance
Forget the fact we fell together
Forget the very moment we began to fall apart
Remember nothing but that very moment at the start

It's the only day I've ever loved and lost

I'll be sad to see you go and I'll forget
I'll forget the way you made me laugh and all the times I caught your smile, forgotten.
I'll be glad to see the back of you,
Out of sight and out of mind,
Forget the day we first held hands
Every moment shared we've left behind

Close your eyes and don't remember the log fire and lightning last November
When all we had was us and wine
Not a shred of decency, lost in time

Forget the fleeting sideways glance
Forget that kiss, the stars, our dance
Forget the fact we fell together
Forget the very moment we began to fall apart
Remember nothing but that very moment at the start

It's the only day I've ever loved and lost

The picture of our friends together,
The scarf you left in better weather,
Happy once and never better
*******

Forget me love, forgive me not
Forget you ever met me, I've forgotten you
I've forgotten you

Forget the fleeting sideways glance
Forget that kiss, the stars, our dance
Forget the fact we fell together
Forget the very moment we began to fall apart
Remember nothing but that very moment at the start

It's the only day I've ever loved and lost

It's the only day I've ever loved and lost

It's the only day I've ever loved and lost

It's the only day I've ever loved and lost

So forget the fleeting sideways glance
Forget that kiss, the stars, our dance
Forget the fact we fell together
Forget the very moment we began to fall apart
Remember nothing but that very moment at the start

Because it's the only day I've ever loved and lost
