I Will Not Forget Him
They tell me to forget him
People say to move on
Yet none of them can tell me
Exactly how that's done
I haven't tried to put him
In the back of my mind
I want to share my memories
All of the time
I know the way things are
Reality is he's gone
How can I just let him go
When my love is still so strong
My heart continues to miss him
My soul, yes, it aches
I want to always love him
Even if it's a mistake
I know he can't return to me
I believe that we are done
Most of the good that's in my life
Came from this special one
So, I will not appease them
I will not sacrifice
I'm going to live my own way
After all this is my life.
