Hollies - Stormy Waters lyrics

I FORGET

WRITER CARLY SIMON

All my doctors and friends

Have concocted these theories

Weary of seeing me day after day

On the edge of my bed

Leery of living

My laughter on hold

My sadness on stay

And ità‚´s been this way for quite a while

Yes, I forget how to smile

Ià‚´d like to rely on my old game and yet

Even that I forget

Ità‚´s not there, I regret

Couldnà‚´t get up today

I pretended a fever

Any excuse but the truth will do

I donà‚´t lie very well

No Ià‚´m not a deceiver

But I canà‚´t bring myself to admit that Ià‚´m blue

And ità‚´s been this way

For quite a while

Yes, I forget how to smile

Ià‚´d like to rely on my old game and yet

Even that I forget

Ità‚´s not there, I regret

The clock and the calendar

Both an assault

Time goes so slow

It must be my fault

I act like Ià‚´m okay

When Ià‚´m not okay at all

I forget what to do

I forget what it all means

Donà‚´t remember if love ever really felt good

I forget to be here

And not in-between

Ià‚´d put on a good show

If only I could

And ità‚´s been this way for quite a while

Yes, I forget how to smile

Ià‚´d like to rely on my old game and yet

Even that I forget

Ità‚´s not there, I regret

I forget
