I dropped her off from the longest talk we'd ever had
And as I walked her to her front porch in the rain
I reminded her, "The last two years weren't all that bad
And you know I'd do it all over again"
And as I hugged her in the doorway
I remembered our first kiss
I never thought it would end like this
And I know it's over, but I just can't let go of her...
Memories wash over me like rain
Each day we had keeps rushing through my brain
They say that love can hurt like hell
But this is more than I can bear
My friends assure me, "Things will start getting better"
If I could only remember to forget her
It's been a while, and it's sinking in she's really gone
So I'm headed out to dinner with a friend
We had our time, and now it's time for moving on
'Cause I guess that even good things have an end
So we talked about the weather
And how the job's been going fine
But all the while she was on my mind
But I'm starting over, if only I could get over her...
Memories wash over me like rain
The smell of her is driving me insane
Her eyes, her smile, the way she laughs
You know, I'm trying to forget
I kinda wish she hadn't left her sweater
If I could only remember to forget her
I've come so far, but way too fast
How long is this gonna last?
I've tried it all, but nothing works
I can't believe just how bad this hurts
And I know it's over, but I just want to hold her...
Memories wash over me like rain
This broken heart keeps pouring down the pain
I know it's time to take that step
Before I drown inside what could've been
'Cause standin' here I'm only gettin' wetter
It's probably time for me to burn this letter
If I could only remember to forget her
