why i can't forget

i know this love is over

and there's no turning back

i know i've made some bad mistakes

and i'll have to live with that

and i guess what hurts the most is

when you say you can't recall

even one good memory

from when we had it all

it's like they never happened

those good times that we shared

but you and god and i know you were there

it breaks my heart to see you leave

with nothing but regret

oh why can't you remember what i can't forget

yesterday meant something

at least it did to me

but i guess are past is just a ghost

that only i can see

i wish that you could face the truth

about the love we had

look back on the years and say

it wasn't all that bad

it's like they never happened

those good times that we shared

but you and god and i know you were there

it breaks my heart to see you leave

with nothing but regret

oh why can't you remember what i can't forget

it's like they never happened

those good times that we shared

but you and god and i know you were there

it breaks my heart to see you leave

with nothing but regret

oh why can't you remember

oh why can't you remember

oh why can't you remember

what i can't forget
