Sometimes I Forget

Hazell Dean · Other Songs - Hazell Dean

We squabble and fight, we turn out the light

We toss and turn all through the night

But come the dawn our arms are wrapped around each other tight.

I know i hurt you babe, i didn't mean to make you so upset.

I love you more than i can say,

But sometimes i forget



Sometimes i forget¡­



And when we're apart there's an ache in my heart.

It's been that way right from the start.

Still there are times i neglect to do my part

You know i still remember the first moment that we met.

I love you more and more each day

But sometimes i forget



Sometimes i forget¡­



I wish i understood how it can feel so good

A love that is so sublime

But somehow it just slips my mind.



So let me say this, our love is bliss.

I'd risk a fortune just for your kiss.

And even so, i know i have been remiss.

So all your fears let me allay

You know you have no cause to fret.

My love will never go away

It's just sometimes i forget.



Sometimes i forget¡­
