The Hardest Part Is Forgetting Those You Swore You Would Never Forget

(album: Dear G-D... - 2012)

There sit two lovers
One's eyes intently chasing the other's
She doesn't love him anymore
But he'll stick it out 'til the end
This he had sworn

Lying awake in bed
Feeling the spot on my chest
Where you used to, where you used to rest your head

Lying awake in bed
Feeling the spot on my chest
Where you used to, where you used to rest your head

You see love's a funny thing
The way it lingers in the mind
No matter what you do
Or the passing of time

That ember still glows
For those lovers behind
No matter if it's well-remembered
That light still shines

Good times take precedent
Over every incident
No matter how poorly spent

So we put on these ridiculous fronts
Like we were just fooling around
Our love was only childish fun

Yet we know different
That it meant something to us
And that piece still lingers
In each one that we've loved

So we pick up the pieces
Try and make a half a whole
But in the back of our minds
There's quite a different story to be told

That love has kissed our lips
That love has touched our eyes
And no matter how sincere
Love has changed our lives

That's why love's a funny thing

And even if all love has flown
We'll have a few scars to proudly show
'Cause at the end of our lives
We can say, "At least we tried."

Lying awake in bed
Feeling the spot on my chest
Where you used to, where you used to rest your head

Lying awake in bed
Feeling the spot on my chest
Where you used to, where you used to rest your head

Lying awake in bed
Feeling the spot on my chest
Where you used to, where you used to rest your head

Lying awake in bed
Feeling the spot on my chest
Where you used to, where you used to rest your head
