Don't Forget Me

Don't forget me everybody says

At a certain age when everything is moving so fast

Don't forget me every girl has said

And I'll remember each and every one until I'm dead

Don't forget me as the soul's diminishing the body's need to live

Remembering the wish to sing and hopeful of what morning brings to life

Not me.

Don't forget me, those other boys forgot

But I'm the one who did their bidding every time and did not

To be forgotten is the most frightening thought

For all those boys and girls and other friends whom time forgot

Don't forget me as the soul's diminishing the body's need for love

Remembering the wish to sing and hopeful of what morning brings to us

Not me, not me, not me

Don't forget me are the words she'd say

When we were young and on the beach and all drenched in spray

But when moon rose the sunburn still burned raw

Cause through all the years there's really only one I saw

And don't forget me is the whispered wish that travels my lips to your ears

Five at fifteen is forever to remember the intervening years

Not me (don't forget me)
