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
