I blind myself to see you
Your striking eyes
Your sweet lips
Your strong arms.
I shut myself in my quiet room to hear
Nothing but your soft, caressing words
Your incomparable promises
Your melodious laugh.
I can't stop thinking about you.
But I don't want to remember
Your irritated gaze
Your tight lips
Or your arms that left me.
I don't want to remember
Your deceitful words
Your broken promises
Or your bitter laugh.
I don't want to remember you.
Your striking eyes
Your sweet lips
Your strong arms.
I shut myself in my quiet room to hear
Nothing but your soft, caressing words
Your incomparable promises
Your melodious laugh.
I can't stop thinking about you.
But I don't want to remember
Your irritated gaze
Your tight lips
Or your arms that left me.
I don't want to remember
Your deceitful words
Your broken promises
Or your bitter laugh.
I don't want to remember you.
