I'M Finally Forgetting

I'm finally forgetting How you took your tea Which side your hair was parted Where you hid your extra key I simply can't remember The way you used to smell Was it musk or soap and water? I used to know it well I don't recall your favorite song The ring tone on your phone Was that dimple on your right cheek? Vanilla cup or cone? Did your skin taste sweet or salty? Did your lips feel soft to kiss? Would you run your fingers through my hair? I remember none of this I've finally turned a corner Though it was hard to do I'm finally forgetting Because I'm getting over you You're not my first thought anymore You don't haunt me in my sleep Don't miss you like I used to The pain is not as deep Yet still I feel some sadness In a melancholy way That my mind will make you disappear Just simply fade away But the only way to heal me Is to erase your memory Every single piece of you Then I'll finally be free
