How Can I Forget

We laid on a hillside under the night sky
Your eyes glowed brighter than the stars
I remember your gaze when I sang to you
My melodies were all over the place but
You told me I don't need to change for you to stay

But you've packed your bags and gone away
No hesitation, no more words to say
But goodbye
Goodbye

I must have lost it along the way
The smile you gave me
If I'd known that you would love me only until here
I would've held it dear
My memory betrays me
The touch of your skin just won't escape me
If I'd known that you'd be gone, I wouldn't have held on
Maybe this would be easy

But oh, oh
How can I forget you
Oh, how can I forget you
How can I forget you

I'd be lying if I said I didn't see it coming
You never liked playing pretend
We stayed too long in the eye of the hurricane
We knew there was no other way
We knew what we had to face

But it still hurt when it happened
I thought my emotions would dampen
But I still don't know where it all went wrong

I must have lost it along the way
The smile you gave me
If I'd known that you would love me only until here
I would've held it dear
My memory betrays me
The touch of your skin just won't escape me
If I'd known that you'd be gone, I wouldn't have held on
Maybe this would be easy

But oh, oh
How can I forget you
Oh, how can I forget you
How can I forget you
