Don't You Forget Me
Sasha Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I stopped by your house just the other day
Caught just a glimpse as you drove away
You looked really cool with your hair that way
(Hair that way, hair that way)

I tried to pretend that you didn't see
But I know that you did cause you looked at me
Ain't it strange how we deal with reality
(With reality, with reality, with reality)

[Chorus]
Don't you forget me
No, not this way
I still believe straight from the heart
Don't you forget me
I thought you'd stay
How can you let this fall apart

I don't understand where you're coming from
You say to your friends that there's something wrong
Does it feel like I'm coming on too strong
(On too strong) yeah (on too strong)

The walls that you build won't get in my way
I don't care what you do, I can climb all day
Give me time just to hear what I have to say, yeah
(I have to say, I have to say, I have to say)

[Chorus]

(Fall apart, fall apart, fall apart)

I stopped by your house just the other day
Caught just a glimpse as you drove away
You looked really cool with your hair that way, yeah
(Your hair that way, your hair that way)

I tried to pretend that you didn't see
But I know that you did cause you looked at me
Strange how we deal with reality

[Chorus]

Don't you, you forget (don't you forget)
Don't you, you forget (don't you forget me, yeah, no)
Don't you, you forget (not this way, hey)
Don't you, you forget (oh, yeah, no?baby)
Don't you, you forget (don't you forget me)
Don't you, you forget (don't you forget me, yeah)
Don't you, you forget (ah?)




Don't you, you forget (don't you let this fall apart)
Fall apart, fall apart

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Sasha Alexander's song Don't You Forget Me convey a message of regret and confusion. The singer pays a visit to their ex's house and sees them driving away, recognizing that they still feel attracted to them, as evident by their comment about their hair, but also acknowledging that they have somehow let things fall apart. The second verse indicates that there is some miscommunication between the two - the person may have expressed to their friends that there was something wrong with the relationship. The singer is puzzled about these signals and wonders if they have come on too strong. However, they also assert that they can overcome "the walls" that are put up between them, and the song ends with a plea to not forget each other.


The lyrics of this song are relatable to those who have experienced a relationship break-up, especially when there is still deep affection involved. The song conveys a sense of nostalgia, as the singer wishes to hold on to the memory of the good times and hopes to reconcile. The themes of miscommunication, regret and longing are universal and can resonate with listeners.
