Don't go around talkin' to your friends about me Bury the past, just let it rest in peace Leave well enough alone Treat me like someone you've never known Chorus: Forget me Like you forgot to come home at night Forget me Like you forgot to hold me tight (Well) now you're sorry, now you cry But don't you wipe those tears 'Til your memories run dry Please forget me Don't let the lonely days remind you of anything Oh baby try to erase the fact we had everything No you can't come back this time So let me slip right out of your mind (Repeat Chorus) 'Cause I forgot to forgive and forget So just pretend we never met (Repeat Chorus) Baby, please forget me
