Forget

They say forgive and forget.
I forgave without a thought,
But how could i forget?

Forget your smile,
Forget your face,
Forget your love,
Forget your name.
No matter what I do,
I can't forget you.

I thought we were forever.
And so did everyone else.
I try so hard to forget.

Forget your smile,
Forget your face,
Forget your love,
Forget your name.
But no matter what I do,
I just can't forget you.

What happened to us?
Are you through with us?
I just hope you can't,

Forget my smile,
Forget my face,
Forget my love,
Forget my name.
No matter what you do,
Don't forget me and you.
