I Forget Lyrics

I FORGET 

WRITER CARLY SIMON



All my doctors and friends 

Have concocted these theories 

Weary of seeing me day after day 

On the edge of my bed 

Leery of living 

My laughter on hold 

My sadness on stay 



And it´s been this way for quite a while

Yes, I forget how to smile 

I´d like to rely on my old game and yet

Even that I forget 

It´s not there, I regret 



Couldn´t get up today 

I pretended a fever 

Any excuse but the truth will do

I don´t lie very well

No I´m not a deceiver 

But I can´t bring myself to admit that I´m blue 



And it´s been this way 

For quite a while 

Yes, I forget how to smile

I´d like to rely on my old game and yet

Even that I forget 

It´s not there, I regret 



The clock and the calendar 

Both an assault 

Time goes so slow 





























It must be my fault 

I act like I´m okay 

When I´m not okay at all 



I forget what to do 

I forget what it all means 

Don´t remember if love ever really felt good 

I forget to be here 

And not in-between 

I´d put on a good show 

If only I could



And it´s been this way for quite a while 

Yes, I forget how to smile 

I´d like to rely on my old game and yet

Even that I forget 

It´s not there, I regret 

I forget
