I thought I'd forgotten

I thought I'd forgotten, but still I remember

Your face and your voice and your smile;

The mem'ry of things that are over and ended

Still haunts me just once in a while.

Along the old road that we travelled together

So many reminders are set;

It doesn't seem fair that I'm sad to remember,

While you are just glad to forget.

I thought you'd remember, but you have forgotten

The wonderful plans that we made;

The beautiful dreams like the summer's sweet roses,

That bloom for a season and fade.

Along the old road that we travelled together,

I pause at each milestone, and yet_

I somehow feel glad that I'm bound to remember,

While you are just free to forget.
