I keep
forgetting that it's over,
that we've really said goodbye
But my tears refresh my memory
each time I start to cry.
I keep forgetting all the sadness
and how lonely I can be.
I just can't think, my mind is blank,
oh, have a certain mind in me.
I keep reaching out
to hold you
in the darkness of our room
But my arm s are always empty,
how can I forget so soon?
I'll tie a string around my finger
to remind me that you're gone
I'll mark the days on my calendar
that I have been alone
I can't recall what happened
or just why you set me free
But with each tear I'll remember
dear old absent -minded
days
I keep reaching out
to hold you
in the darkness of our room
But my arms are always empty,
how can I forget so soon?
I'll tie a string around my finger
to remind me that you're gone
I'll mark the days on my calendar
that I have been alone.
I can't recall what happened
or just why you set me free.
But with each tear I'll remember,
dear, oh, absent -minded babe.
Oh, absent -minded babe. you
