I Forget You Every Day
Merle Haggard · Hag-The Studio Recordings 1969-1976 [2007]
Mem'ries is a gift man can't live without
And at times we can't control the things we think about
Sometimes I remember you in every way
But for a little while I forget you every day.
Seems like I forget you just in time
'Cause it's always just before I lose my mind
I wake up every morning hurtin' the same old way
But for a little while I forget you every day.
--- Instrumental ---
Seems like I forget you every day,just in time
And it's always just before I lose my mind
I wake up every morning hurtin' the same old way
But for a little while I forget you every day...
