Forgotten, But Not Gone
|
(Johnny Macrae/Buzz Carson)
|
|
Her birthday came and went without a card, or a single I love you
|
On their anniversary she sat all alone at a table set for two
|
She tries her best to please him, but she never hears one single word of praise
|
She feels just like a stranger, in a home where love has seen its better days
|
|
Well he's taken her for granted
|
God only knows why she keeps hangin' on
|
'Cause it's better to be gone, but not forgotten
|
Than to be forgotten, but not gone
|
|
Somehow he can't remember, when he's late to even take the time to call
|
And even on the nights he's there she gets the feeling he's not there at all
|
She's become a prisoner in that big old house where sweet love used to be
|
Well, it's not even over but Lord she feels just like a memory
|
|
Well he's taken her for granted
|
God only knows why she keeps hangin' on
|
'Cause it's better to be gone, but not forgotten
|
Than to be forgotten, but not gone
|
|
'Cause it's better to be gone, but not forgotten
|
Gone, but not forgotten
|
Than to be forgotten, but not gone
|
