I had to remember to forget The howling rustle of the leaves The chaos from the T.V. set I saw the shapeless silhouette That crept behind the dancing trees I had to remember to forget All is not over yet More howling as the widow grieves The chaos from the T.V. set She is left cold and hungry and wet Cursing those ****** thieves I had to remember to forget That innocent, frail brunette Wiping her eyes with her billowy sleeves The chaos from the T.V. set She smokes another cigarette Ashes fall onto bruised knees I had to remember to forget The chaos from the T.V. set

Forgetting
I had to remember to forget The howling rustle of the leaves The chaos from the T.V. set I saw the shapeless silhouette That crept behind the dancing trees I had to remember to forget All is not over yet More howling as the widow grieves The chaos from the T.V. set She is left cold and hungry and wet Cursing those ****** thieves I had to remember to forget That innocent, frail brunette Wiping her eyes with her billowy sleeves The chaos from the T.V. set She smokes another cigarette Ashes fall onto bruised knees I had to remember to forget The chaos from the T.V. set
