I Can't Remember, I Can't Forget

So close to touch like a distant star,
You do seem familiar, whoever you are
A constant reminder of what I can't
recall, I'm not sure what happened at all
I drift, I fade, I become awake, You can not give what I won't take
When the mist clears and the fog has
come, You can't escape what I'm running from

Flames that are cold, ice that is hot,
Lies that seem right, truth that is not
I was so happy, I was so upset, I can't remember, I can't forget,
I can't remember, I can't forget

In all this darkness is a blinding light,
I close my eyes and you come into sight
While I'm not ready for this kind of
emotion, To you I give everlasting devotion
Sometime soon, maybe yesterday,
I need you to stay, no, you must go away
Always on my mind, though we've never met,
Sweet words of love that sound like a threat

Flames that are cold, ice that is hot,
Lies that seem right, truth that is not
There is no image on this T.V. set, I can't remember, I can't forget
I can't remember, I can't forget, I can't remember...

All I ever found that I wanted to do,
was find a way to find a way to find you
All you reveal is hidden and then, All you reveal is hidden again
And must I say for whatever it's
worth, Nirvana might be right here on earth
I open a door and it is a wall,
I get to that place where I'm nothing at all
Only to vanish without a trace, And appear in every place

Flames that are cold, ice that is hot,
Lies that seem right, truth that is not
I win the prize, but I lose the bet, I can't remember, I can't forget
I can't remember, I can't forget, I can't remember, I ...
