Wish I could forget
There's no going back
But I can't move ahead
I'm just stuck running memories around in my head
And scratching it all down on paper
Every sound, every word, everything that you said
But now I wish I could
I wish I could
I wish I could forget
I wish I could forget you
I still see your face
Can't seem to erase
The mental stash of photographs
I can't help but retrace
Pacing the floors trying trying not to remember
Every touch, every kiss and the love that we made
And now I wish I could
I wish I could
I wish I could forget
I wish I could forget you
I hoped with passing time
That you would fade fade away
Seems this would be easier that way
But minutes and hours and days and weeks
Don't seem to make a change
In these feelings I have for you
But I wish I could forget you
But I can't move ahead
I'm just stuck running memories around in my head
And scratching it all down on paper
Every sound, every word, everything that you said
But now I wish I could
I wish I could
I wish I could forget
I wish I could forget you
I still see your face
Can't seem to erase
The mental stash of photographs
I can't help but retrace
Pacing the floors trying trying not to remember
Every touch, every kiss and the love that we made
And now I wish I could
I wish I could
I wish I could forget
I wish I could forget you
I hoped with passing time
That you would fade fade away
Seems this would be easier that way
But minutes and hours and days and weeks
Don't seem to make a change
In these feelings I have for you
But I wish I could forget you
