Memories I Never Had
 

You, Standing over there,

I get a vibe that’s so familiar,

But you might as well be my stranger,
 

You, Glancing over here,

You must be thinking of what hit you,

Things that I would deny existed,

 

I feel you touching me, But I could never let you,

Your lips all over me, But that I can’t remember

 

I do not recall, I-do not recall

Guess I really wasn’t there-guess I really wasn’t there-

Don’t bother me, I’m on a roll

If you catch me, you looking stupid

No lying, I might have cried then, but for now no recollection

 

You, Walk into a room,

Our eyes meet, Instantly I’m set on fire,

 

I cool down, Want to make my escape,

But I erase, And you’re back to just another passing face,

 

I hear your voice, So sweet, But you never talked to me,

I bite my lip and stare, But then, You were never there

 

I do not recall, I-do not recall

Guess I really wasn’t there-guess I really wasn’t there-

Don’t bother me, I’m on a roll

If you catch me, you looking stupid

No lying, I might have cried then, but for now no recollection

 

You can say I’ve got memory lost,

Forgot segments,

I remember what I want to,

 

Just let this be,

You can have no memory too,

 

You’re probably better at this than me,

 

I do not recall, I-do not recall

Guess I really wasn’t there-guess I really wasn’t there-

Don’t bother me, I’m on a roll

If you catch me, you looking stupid

No lying, I might have cried then, but for now no recollection

 

Don’t bring up memories I never had…
