Forget You
Anne-Marie Lyrics

I keep your picture in a book beside my bed
I hold onto the memory of you by keeping a photograph of you close to me, a reminder of what we once had.

With a letter that I know I cannot send
I write letters to express how I feel, even though I am aware that I can never actually send them to you.

I get sentimental now and then
Occasionally, my emotions overwhelm me, and I find myself feeling nostalgic and sentimental about our time together.

So I won't forget about you
By holding onto these physical reminders, I ensure that I do not forget about you, as you still hold a special place in my heart.

I keep a locket on a string around my neck
A locket hangs around my neck, symbolizing the space in my heart that is reserved for the person I have yet to find, but desperately long for.

With nothing in it but the one I don't have yet
Currently, the locket remains empty, representing the absence of the person I have been searching for but have not yet found.

Can't live your life remembering to forget
It is impossible to move forward if one constantly dwells on the need to forget someone, as it hinders personal growth and healing.

But I can't forget about you
Despite my efforts, I cannot completely erase you from my thoughts and memories, as your impact on my life persists.

I didn't know it at the time
In that particular moment, I was unaware of the significance and depth of the connection we shared.

But for a moment you were mine
Although fleeting, there was a brief period when we belonged to each other, when we were both fully present in each other's lives.

You don't know what you got until it's gone and
One often fails to appreciate the value of what they possess until it is no longer within reach, until it slips away unnoticed.

I lost you while I was writing you a love song
While I was pouring my emotions into a heartfelt love song for you, I realized that I had already lost you, making my efforts seemingly futile.

Oh the little things mean everything, yes they do and
The seemingly insignificant moments and gestures hold immense value and significance, shaping and impacting our lives in profound ways.

What you don't see can put an end to you
Sometimes, the hidden or unexpressed emotions, the things that remain unseen, have the power to bring an end to a relationship or even to one's own well-being.

I don't know what this world is coming to
The current state of the world and the relationships within it perplexes and saddens me, leaving me uncertain about the future and what it holds.

When the sweetest hearts are beating black and blue
It is disheartening to witness the gentlest and most compassionate individuals endure pain and suffering within their hearts, internalizing and suppressing their own struggles.

People say that we weren't meant to be
Others believe that our paths were never destined to intersect, that it was not fated for us to be together.

And it's easier when leaving happens early
Parting ways with someone is often less painful when it occurs at an early stage, before a deep emotional bond has been formed.

I tell myself what will be will be
I try to convince myself that whatever is meant to happen will inevitably occur, though deep down, I yearn for a different outcome.

But I'd give anything to hear your heartbeat
I would sacrifice anything just to experience the comforting and familiar sound of your heartbeat, a symbol of your presence and love.

Baby, I won't forget about you
Regardless of the circumstances or the passage of time, my love and memories of you will persist, as I refuse to let you slip away from my thoughts and heart.
