Original Doug Heyes lyrics · AI-generated music & vocals
No, I don't remember you. Not the initials, not the kiss, not the exact way an empty room sounds after you've gone. Funny how many details a man can forget so precisely. Let me keep saying it a little longer. Maybe eventually my mouth will convince the part of me that remembers everything.

I DON'T REMEMBER YOU I don’t remember you I don’t know you at all You tell me that two lovers Carved initials in the wall Did we live together I swear that I don’t know Did we promise forever And then just let it go? Running through my memory Like The Last Picture Show Scenes of life without you Like seasons come and go Reasons for a tragedy That even I don’t know Lights out on an empty stage Everywhere I go I don’t know who you are Tell me why you’re here I never got a note from you That made it very clear I didn't turn around You didn’t walk away I wouldn’t have it Any other way CHORUS: I don't remember you I don’t dream of you at night I didn’t shed a tear And so, everything’s all right I never held you near We never had a fight We never had to cry Because we never said goodbye I don't know what Love Is I just can’t be sure If anything, I think I know Is real or can endure I don't know what heartbreak is I know there is no cure You say it started with a kiss I say I'm not sure If something's right, then something's wrong Nothing lasts for very long But the past still comes along A moment here and then it’s gone Don't know where I'm going Or what I'm going to do Makes it easier to know I'm not in love with you BRIDGE: Love is an illusion Hope is a delusion Red light from above There’s no such thing as love CHORUS: I don’t remember you I don’t dream of you at night I didn’t shed a tear And so, everything’s all right I never held you near We never had a fight We never had to cry Because we never said goodbye BRIDGE: Love is an illusion Hope is a delusion Red light from above There’s no such thing as love OUTRO & OUT *****
