I Had Forgotten You Lyrics

  Send "I Had Forgotten You" Ringtone to your Cell  

Paul Kelly (Mushroom Music)

I had forgotten the dress you wore

The first time I ever saw you walking through a door

And I had forgotten your secret smile

That seemed to say it's okay you can stay awhile

And I never kept a trace

Of your voice, your touch, your taste

Or your perfume

I had forgotten you

Then I got a letter, it came today

From an old friend this is what he had to say

You know Frank Hannon, well his wife just died

But the big news is he's already found another bride

You may remember her

She says you once went out with her

She was 22

She still remembers you

She's been a widow for six years

Now her children have left home

She nursed Frank's wife for a while

But nobody knew this was going on

Now Mary comes to me, she turns out the light

Then after a while she asks me if I'm alright

Well I turn to hold her but I'm not there

Tonight I feel like both of us are made of air

Mary's hair is turning grey

And she worries about her weight

Do you, too?

I had forgotten you

Yes, it's true

I had forgotten you

Nothing new

I had forgotten you
