Janice Lagata - Forget (About You) Lyrics

I used to want to ask you what happened
And how I could correct it
But then I realized you weren't a friend
You were just a lesson

That there are battles not worth fighting
Losses not worth crying over
And bridges meant for burning
And living is for learning

So I'm learning to live without you
And all you wouldn't give
I'm bound to find along the way
And knowing how time fades the list of things we outgrew
I know someday I'll forget I ever wrote this song about you

But I wonder how you tell it, the story of how we drifted
I bet you say that I changed
But never mention how you didn't

Through all the battles you knew I was fighting
The help you kept denying
And bridges you set burning
But living is for learning

And I'm learning to live without you
And all you wouldn't give
I'm bound to find along the way
And knowing how time fades the list of things we outgrew
I know someday I'll forget I ever wrote this song

About you
'Cause anything about you
Is the only thing that's guaranteed
To get your attention
Which I don't want
But now you are jonesing to flaunt
How you knew me back when
And you did so before I forget
I just want you to get all the credit you're due
For the lessons I learned from you

There are battles not worth fighting
Losses not worth crying over
And bridges built for burning
And living is for learning

I'm learning to live without you
And all you wouldn't give
I'm bound to find along the way
And knowing how time fades
The list of things we outgrew
I know you'll remember this
And you can always tell your friends
Long after I forget
I wrote this song about you
