Trying To Forget

She listens to the song
That reminds her of you
She wants to forget
&get over you

She's moved on
To a great new guy
But certain things
Makes her want to cry

A single lyric
A song played slow
Her tears she fights
Not wanting to show

She tries to forget
But your memory lingers
Her throat hurts
Her hands quiver

Her heart is aching
Deep inside
She listens to the song
Remembering the times

She tries to forget
But her mind spins
Trying to defeat you
But she cannot win

She tries to forget
Impossible it seems
Nightmares have taken over
All her sweet dream

She tries to forget
But memories don't fade
She's living her life
But nothing's the same

She tries to forget
How you kissed
The way you touched
Her heart is breaking
She loved you so much

She turns off the song
Throws away the cassette
Now she'll go on
Just trying to forget
