funny how i forgot your name

funny how
it starts with
a heartbreak,
and it ends
with one, too.

‘cause i was just
recovering from him,
i wasn’t gonna
fall for you.

but with those green eyes,
just took you one night,
to sweep me off my feet…

i called you darling
‘cause you wrote me
pretty things.

i called you lovely
‘cause of the way
you can sing.

i called you baby
‘cause you’d hold me
oh-so tight.

i called you sweet thing
‘cause you make me
feel alright.

i called you everything you’re not.
won’t say i’m sorry,
i forgot your name.

i forgot
your name.

funny how
it starts with
a heartbreak,
and it ends
with one, too…

the only question left is:
who the heck are you?
