Don't Forget

(album: Innerstanding - 2015)

You don't want to kiss me anymore
Now your love's turned round and become conditional
How I long, how I long for the smell of your cocoa buttered skin
Your eyes don't light up like the way they always did
Rose wine glass with your lipstick on the edge
Sat here in silence staring at the ends of your cigarettes

Don't forget me in the morning
When you wake beside somebody else
And don't regret me
When you fall back in love
I hope I made a bit of sense
Don't forget me please, darling
I hope I made a difference
And I know you left me
And I understand why, but don't forget my love

Brush my lips against the tattoo on your shoulder
Your little king, I love him like a father
You held me high
So high I don't want to come down
There's another man, I know, it's okay, I understand
I'm not the one you want to hold your hand
You deserve the sky, the stars and everything he has
Let him love you better than I can

Don't forget me in the morning
When you wake beside somebody else
And don't regret me
When you fall back in love
I hope I made a bit of sense
Don't forget me please, darling
I hope I made a difference
And I know you left me
And I understand why, but don't forget my love
