Forgetting You

I broke up with my girlfriend 6 months ago. I don't know why I did it, but I loved her. She seemed completely unaffected after the break up.

Can you not see that you're killing me?

You have to see it in my eyes

When I stare at you from across the ball room

A part of me gives up and dies.

Our eyes won't stop meeting

And my arms are bleeding

Please, won't you bandage me up?

How can you say you're not feeling it?

'Cause it burns my heart like a coal

Please tell me at least that I left a mark,

'Cause in my heart, you left a hole.

My stomach is churning

And my heart is burning

Please, won't you put the flame out?

And I know that I need to forget you,

But it's impossibly hard to let go

Of the threads that for so long entangled me

So I guess I just need you to know

I'm moving on and forgetting you,

You're getting kicked out of my life

And even though I cry when I see your face,

My heart wishes you were my wife.
