Gotye - The Only Thing I Know lyrics

I'm living with your memory

In the attic in my mind

And you've been getting by without me

But I've been spending all my time

With a girl that I remember

Who'll never leave or need to grow

Cos when you left you left your memory

Now it's the only thing I know

When the past gives me no comfort

And though the future is the cost

The way I'm choosing to remember

I'll forever be the man I never was

And you, you fade

But the memory remains the same

And I, I can't change

And I think that living with your memory

Is slowly driving me insane

You are perfect but you're empty

And it gets so lonely in my mind

Cos your image in my memory's

The only shred of you that's left behind

You were real but then you left me

And that's the part I can't accept

So I'll keep on living with your memory

Because it's all that I've got left
