Phil Vassar - I Thought I Never Would Forget Lyrics
I went back in time today a box I thoughtI'd thrown awayHad fallen off the basement shelf,I tripped and almost hurt myselfScattered there across the floorA New Year's Eve hat from '94Ticket stubs to Billy Joel and picturesFrom the Sugar BowlSome of these souvenirs I rememberMostly I don'tIt's funny how time reduces a keepsakeTo a footnoteThe wheres and the whens that meantSo much thenHave gracefully moved alongMy memory had mercy on meAnd let me go onConsidering everything you meant I thoughtI never would forgetHere's us dancing on your birthdayJuly 29th or 28thThe song was "Always and Forever,"I'm not sure but I rememberThat's the night we first made loveThe passion captured both of usIt held us, then it set us free,This is all that's left of you and meA cardboard treasure chest with a diaryOf two loversNow it's a dusty old box no differentFrom the othersThe wheres and the whens that meantSo much thenHave gracefully moved alongMy memory had mercy on meAnd let me go onConsidering everything you meant I thoughtI never would forgetMy memory had mercy on meAnd let me go onConsidering everything you meant I thoughtI never would forget
