I forgot to remember to forget her,

I can't seem to get her off my mind.

I thought I'd never miss her,

But I've found out somehow

I think about her almost all the time.



Well the day she went away

I made myself I promise

That I'd soon forget we'd ever met. But something sure is wrong

'Cause I'm so blue and lonely:

I forgot to remember to forget.



Well the day she went away

I made myself I promise

That I'd soon forget we'd ever met. But something sure is wrong

'Cause I'm so blue and lonely:

I forgot to remember to forget.
