Forgotten Phoenix

It's snowing here in Boston
Don't know why that even matters
Somehow something tells me that it does
She's shaken up my memory
Like dice upon a table
They're bouncing while my head begins to buzz

Oh, I don't recall

Now I've forgotten Phoenix
Forgotten Tempe, too
But I know why the desert ran away with you

Now I've forgotten Phoenix
That's where it all began
I blocked it from my memory and ran

Oh, I don't recall

I might as well just face it
She's never coming back
All I have are photos of her standing in the sand
When I try to find her
She always slips away
Like holding cups of water in my hand

Oh, I don't recall

Now I've forgotten Phoenix
Forgotten Chandler, too
But I know why the desert ran away with you

Now I've forgotten Phoenix
That's all you need to know
I packed up all my memories to go

Oh, I don't recall

Now I've forgotten Phoenix
Forgotten Tempe, too
But I know why the desert ran away with you

Now I've forgotten Phoenix
That's where it all began
I blocked it from my memory and ran

Oh, I don't recall
