Lyrics

I Don't Want You To Forget

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

The touch of lips the close of eyes

They matter more than you surmise

I hide it all in secret boxes

Until tomorrow when we first meet

I watch you fade before my eyes

I can’t take it, but I won’t look away

Maybe the fires that feel so cold,

They won’t completely die away

I don’t want to, I don’t want you

I don’t want you to forget

I don’t want to, I don’t want you

I don’t want you to forget

I may not let you see my pain

I may not speak hard words in anger

To you maybe it isn’t really strange

You being loved by a stranger

I won’t give you up just yet

I will come calling at your door

Ours is a home we can’t get to anymore

I don’t want to, I don’t want you

I don’t want you to forget

I don’t want to, I don’t want you

I don’t want you to forget

Behind your eyes there is a distance

I ask you if you’d like to dance

You mistake me for a healer

I’m just a desperate man stealing one last chance
