Do you remember the day
Our souls first clashed?
Do you remember the way
Our hearts embraced?
Do you remember?
Because I remember
How we connected in hurt,
How we danced under lights,
How we bled from our eyes,
How we loved-
But does it really matter,
If all I have left are memories of you?
Memories,
They’re no substitute for you,
For the waves in your hair,
For the squint in your smile,
For the way you say my name,
Or for the way you drive.
So I want to forget you,
Because I can’t be with you,
Because I had to say goodbye.
And though it’s not forever,
It could be
And probably will be,
Forever.

Do you remember the day
Our souls first clashed?
Do you remember the way
Our hearts embraced?
Do you remember?
Because I remember
How we connected in hurt,
How we danced under lights,
How we bled from our eyes,
How we loved-
But does it really matter,
If all I have left are memories of you?
Memories,
They’re no substitute for you,
For the waves in your hair,
For the squint in your smile,
For the way you say my name,
Or for the way you drive.
So I want to forget you,
Because I can’t be with you,
Because I had to say goodbye.
And though it’s not forever,
It could be
And probably will be,
Forever.
