I Won't Forget you Too

Do you remember those words you said to me?

Laying on your couch

In the middle of the day.

You told me you loved me--

I said it back.

Do you remember not too long ago,

You told me I was all you'd ever needed.

Did you change your mind?

Well I didn't change mine.

Do you remember the first fight we had?

How much pain we both were in.

How soon we fixed things,

Made our lives whole again.

Now here I am trying to make sense of it all,

How we made a complete 180.

How everything in my life,

Shattered before my eyes.

The memories flash quick before my eyes,

Keeping me up at night.

As the words you last said to me,

Are stuck in my head on repeat.

All the good times we used to have,

Just slowly fade away from my memory.

I can't believe you're gone,

Away from me.

I can't believe we aren't the same,

Who we used to be.

All I ever needed

Was you.

And now I see it,

Now I feel it.

Feel the pain

The pain that's left me paralyzed.

I just can't take it.

Can't accept the fact you're gone.

I don't regret it,

No, I won't forget it.

I still only want the best for you.

Now there's one thing left I have to say,

Did you know it?

Did you know how much I loved you?

It doesn't matter.

Because now you're just

Someone I used to love.

And if you felt the same way too,

You may understand where I'm coming from.

But if not, I also understand.

Thanks for the good times.

Thanks for the happy moments.

Thanks for being all I ever wanted.

I hate to see it all go to waste;

But sometimes you gotta break,

To become strong again.

You taught me a lot,

Helped me become happy once again.

I'm in a lot of pain now.

More than you could ever understand.

But that's okay cause

I now know what I need in my life.

One day, I’ll feel the same way again.

You said we could still be friends.

But how could I ever be just friends

With someone who once meant the world to me?

I’ll give it a try though,

We'll see how far I can go.

I hope I see you again,

Years down the road.

With a family and a beautiful wife.

But until then,

I hope you succeed in all you want.

Go to college in San Francisco,

Have a good time in the military,

And come home safe.

And I hope I'll see my old self again.

I hope I'll live my life.

For my own kids, and my husband.

I hope I'll follow my dreams.

Yeah, it'll take a while,

But I know I'll get there.

You've taught me how to be strong.

Thanks again for loving me,

Making me smile.

Picking me off my feet.

Our time has ended now but,

You'll still be all I think about.

I should go now,

And wash my sheets.

Throw away the tissues,

And find peace.

I’ll always love you.

Don't forget me.

Cause I promise I’ll never forget you too.
