Not Forgetting - The Bossa Latin Lounge Jazz Band

Crawling then walking Then running and sweating Forgetting Lying and cheating Aiding and abetting Forgetting Itching and scratching And punching and hitting Forgetting, forgetting Forgetting, forgetting Reminding, rewinding Removing, regretting Forgetting Your smiles at the wake And your tears at the wedding Forgetting, forgetting Forgetting, forgetting Forgetting, forgetting Forgetting Spellbound and hell-bound And caught in the netting Forgetting A wiping it clean A minute Armageddon Forgetting, forgetting Forgetting, forgetting Forgetting, forgetting Forgetting Forgetting, forgetting Forgetting

You rise up like smoke from the bed of this hotel And I don't do so well getting you when I'm alone Local TV, these walls take pity on me Ice machine in your memory, all I hear down the hall When it's quiet, I'm quietly sayin' your name In the silence, you're silently hidin' away And I'm gettin' older, but you never change In a crowd, I could swear I've moved on But I'm still no good at forgetting you when I'm alone You're the buzz of a fan You're thе hum of the AC I can't help reminiscing 'Causе you're singin' me to sleep When it's quiet, I'm quietly sayin' your name In the silence, you're silently hidin' away And I'm gettin' older, but you never change In a crowd, I could swear I've moved on But I'm still no good at forgetting you when I'm alone He doesn't know He's just layin' there, sleeping It's me and my demons You rising up like smoke When it's quiet, I'm quietly sayin' your name In the silence, you're silently hidin' away And I'm gettin' older, but you never change In a crowd, I could swear I've moved on But I'm still no good at forgetting you when I'm alone

Give me Monday I just like to be left alone Cause on Tuesday You gonna mess up my room Then I go to Wednesday Where I don't have a clue what we are Why can't we stop pretending We're just wasting time And you can trust what I say You now own my heart I ask of Friday to save me From myself Let me fall into a state of forgetting Forgetting who we are I'm just fucked With where my mind state is at I'll just leave it at that Don't need my therapist back I can do this on my own My friends will tell me You are the wrong type of drug You sure ain't no painkiller baby Maybe Let me write another song About how much we get along And never look and work on the problems And I can't stop me no Because you now own my heart I ask of Friday to save me From myself Let me fall into a state of forgetting Forgetting who we are Let me play Another show alone On the weekend Just me and alcohol Have me stepping Got me stumbling to my home I ask of Friday to save me From myself Let me fall into a state of forgetting Forgetting who we are Let me play Another show alone On the weekend Just me and alcohol Have me stepping Got me stumbling to my home
