I can't remember what I first saw in you, I can't remember what last thought went through, But, I remember the one song we danced to, And, I remember having to forget you..., And I rememeber exactly what you had to wear, And I remember that distinct smell of your hair, And I remember you almost tripping up in the bar, And I remember having to watch you from afar... So why can't I get you out of my mind? Why can't I leave the thought of you behind? Why can't I forget everything I know? Why can't I just let you go? And I remember that smile that you put upon your face, And I remember that smile while he was saying grace, And I remember all the sad stories that we told, And I can't forget that it was him you wanted to hold... And I remember all the sarcastic jokes you made, And how you said "that guy looks just like David Spade", And I remember you not even knowing I was there, And how that when he talked, all you did was stare... So why can't I get you out of my mind? Why can't I leave the thought of you behind? Why can't I forget everything I know? Why can't I just let you go? You were never interested, so why did I even try? That thought to me almost made me cry It was so hard to meet someone new, And know that they're not thinking about you... So why can't I get you out of my mind? Why can't I leave the thought of you behind? Why can't I forget everything I know? Why can't I just let you go... I need to get you out of my mind I need to leave the thought of you behind I need to forget everything I know, But, it will be hard to let you go...
