Why Can't I Forget Lyrics

	I have the world's worst memory
	Many times a day, I say,
	Where did I leave my key?
	Where have I put my purse?
	Where else should I be?
	It's perverse
	A life of hide-and-seek
	I never know the date and worse,
	The day of the week
	So, why can't I forget
	The day I met him?
	He held the door and let me go ahead
	Rushing to our separate lives
	We took a walk instead
	Why can't I forget him
	And every word he said?
	I'm always sending Christmas cards
	They're more interesting in spring
	Only my banker knows
	The checks I forgot to sign
	Where did I get these clothes?
	They're not mine!
	I made myself a list
	Of things I really have to find
	But where is that list?
	So, why can't I forget
	Those summer evenings
	He'd wait for me outside our small café?
	We were both like kids again
	We had so much to say
	Why can't I forget him?
	It's funny in a way
	Funny just remembering
	The way we laughed at ev'rything
	I found the one that I'd been waiting for
	I could hardly recognize
	The woman I was in his eyes,
	A woman I had never known before
	Why can't I forget
	The way he touched me?
	I see his face, desire in his eyes,
	The smile he gave to no one else,
	His silences and sighs
	Why can't I forget
	The way he loved me,
	The way I loved him,
	And the way he said goodbye?
