I'll Never Forget You But You'll Never Remember Me

We’re living for the future
Making each moment count
All your raw energy transforms into fun filled nights
Evenings that I’ll never want to forget.

Place the penny in the slot machine and let’s let this night roll
Shooting for the luck
That we know we’re never gonna get
You’re way off the mark of treasure so dig again.
We can make this last forever.

Chorus

I’ll never forget you
You’ll never remember me
I want to start this over again
You won’t even think this through
This choice seems all wrong
Direct me toward the light to save this now.

This can’t be right
You and me are the picture of destiny
Why did all the stars in the sky plummet to the ground
Pick the scattered ashes up
Don’t just leave them there like I know you will
Show the decency to say goodbye
Yet you walk away without a word
Forever holding silence
Suspended in abnormal atmosphere

The record skips a beat
Our soundtrack comes to a close
Our last note holds the peace
That didn’t escape
But now it travels at an indefinable speed
Nobody can hope to capture the substance
Unless it’s you or I
Only because our chemical reaction made it so

Chorus

I’ll never forget you
You’ll never remember me
I want to start this over again
You won’t even think this through
This choice seems all wrong
Direct me toward the light to save this now.

For the record, it was never my intention to lead you away
Yet you seemed all the more willing to push me aside
It only helped your conscience to think it was my fault
Why bother to wound your self esteem
When you can destroy what’s already been weakened?

Forgotten realms of sweet fantasies make this seem unreal
The best thing that could have happened here was not this
A cleaner cut would mean no tears and sadness
Don’t mind me, I’ll just lay here without arms to hold me
While you light up the shadows of your mind where I remain.

Now I’m singing goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Now I’m singing goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

I’ll never forget you
You’ll never remember me
I want to start this over again
You won’t even think this through
This choice seems all wrong
Direct me toward the light to save this now.
Just leave the past in the back where it belongs
Let’s never speak of this dreaded mistake again
It’s best for us all if we can only forget
This unholy lie that lead us to regret
Goodbye.
