I Forgot To Forget

( James Buckelew/ Gary Hede/ Jim Heffernan) Music of C and P BMI

I Thought I smelled the perfume you used to where.

The way the shadows danced on your pillow.

I swore you were lying there.

But when I reached to touch you I knew then.

My heart had found another way.

To fool my mind again.

(Chorus)

I forgot to forget you last night.

Our past became the present.

Right before my eyes.

And down a trail of tears you disappeared.

If memory serves me right.

I forgot to forget you last night.

I think I whispered darlin' I was so wrong.

If I had spent more time just holding you.

I wouldn't be here all alone.

Then the words "I Love You" shook my heart.

As they echoed in the silence.

I died here in the dark.

Chorus
