Forget About Me

She said please, won't you get off my back?
Can't you see that I'm in pain?
You know I will never
let you pull me back in again.
A lot of things have changed lately;
it's not up to you to save me.
There's no turning back
this is it--I'm on a one-way track
not looking back.

So won't you please
forget about me?
Let me be.
Don't try to save me.

But it would be a lie if I told you I
do not miss her.
Her eyes and her smile and the words she used to whisper.

But the lord only knows how much I have prayed,
and the lord only knows about my lonely days,
and you coulda been mine, and I coulda been yours--

So won't you please
forget about me?
And let me be;
don't try to save me.

Just go ahead
go ahead
Just go ahead
go ahead

But it would be a lie if I told you I do not miss her.
