A Girl that Men Forget

A Girl that Men Forget

A Poem by Abdul Batin Osman Bey
"

Inspired by Beck's Song Reader I wrote these lyrics for a Ukulele song.

"

I know this girl named Sarah

She lives in Old South Bridge

Whenever she sees a former lover she says hello

They always look confused as if they don’t know

Even after she tells them of their affair

They gaze through her as if she’s air

 

She’s just a girl that men forget

Nothing remarkable

She’s just a girl that men forget

No matter how hard

She’s never remembered

 

On the holidays she calls her father

Though she doesn’t know why she bothers

Every time he picks up the phone

She’s always left feeling alone

He insists that he never had a daughter

Tells her she better check the number

 

 

She’s just a girl that men forget

Nothing remarkable

She’s just a girl that men forget

No matter how hard

She’s never remembered
