[Chorus:]
|
I keep forgettin' we're not in love anymore
|
I keep forgettin' things will never be the same again
|
I keep forgettin' how you made that so clear
|
I keep forgettin'
|
|
Everytime you're near
|
Everytime I see you smile
|
Hear your "hello"
|
Saying you can only stay a while
|
|
Hey, I know that it's hard for you
|
To say the things that we both know are true
|
But tell me how come (I)
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Everytime I hear
|
How you never want to live a lie
|
How it's gone to far
|
And you don't have to tell me why
|
|
Why you're gone and the game is through
|
If this is what's real, if this is what's true
|
Tell me how come (I)
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Don't say that, don't say that, don't say that
|
I know you're not mine anymore-anyway-anytime
|
But tell me how come (I)
|
|
[Chorus]
