John Prine
I Forgot to Remember to Forget
I forgot to remember to forget her
I can't seem to get her off my mind
I thought I'd never miss her
But I've found out somehow
I think about her almost all the time
Well, the day she went away, I made myself a promise
That I'd soon forget we'd ever met
But something sure is wrong
'Cause I'm so blue and lonely
I forgot to remember to forget
I forgot to remember to forget her
I can't seem to get her off my mind
I thought I'd never miss her
But I've found out somehow
I think about her almost all the time
The day she went away, I made myself a promise
That I'd soon forget we'd ever met
But something sure is wrong
'Cause I'm so blue and lonely
I forgot to remember to forget
We forgot to remember to forget
