I Don't Want to Forget You(Indie Pop/Alt Rock)

[Verse 1 — Soft, intimate, aching]

I was listening to a song
One you showed me years ago
And I wasn't even thinking of you
Until suddenly I was

I tried to sing along
But my throat wouldn't let me
It's strange how something so beautiful
Can hurt this fucking deeply

[Pre-Chorus — Vulnerable, emotionally rising]

I keep saying I don't want to think about you
But that's not even true
Not every memory is beautiful
But I still love remembering you

[Chorus — Tender, soaring, deeply emotional]

I don't want to forget you
I don't want these memories to fade
I just wish that I could think of you
Without breaking down this way

I don't want you out of my head
I just wish it didn't hurt
To remember something beautiful
And feel my whole world fall apart

[Verse 2 — Gentle, nostalgic, gradually warming]

Half the music that I love
You showed me, or we found together
And now a song I've heard a thousand times
Can take me back to us whenever

Sometimes it's something someone says
Or a laugh across the room
Sometimes it's just a passing melody
That reminds me of you

And sometimes I don't even know
What brought you to my mind
But suddenly another memory
Takes me back in time

[Verse 3 — Affectionate, playful nostalgia]

Reese's, salty chips
Kaviar in a tube
Blueberry jam and Sour Feet
They all remind me of you

Fancy cheeses and Ritz
And green apples with freckles
Just like you

I still remember all your favorites
Every little thing you'd choose
And sometimes walking through the grocery store
Feels like I'm shopping for two

And I could keep on naming things
Until the morning light
Eleven years of knowing you
Don't fit into a few lines

[Pre-Chorus — Softer, affectionate]

And the truth is, I love these moments
Even when they leave me hurting
Because for just a little while
It feels like you're here with me

[Chorus — Beautiful, sustained singing]

I don't want to forget you
I don't want these memories to fade
I just wish that I could think of you
Without breaking down this way

I don't want you out of my head
I just wish it didn't hurt
To remember something beautiful
And feel my whole world fall apart

[Verse 4 — Warm, dreamy, romantic]

Just know you're always on my mind
No matter how hard I try
I can't get you out

Your smile is the background
Of my eyelids when they close

Your laugh is the ringtone
Of every thought in my mind

Your voice is the radio station
I never want to change from

And my love for you
Keeps my heart beating

[Bridge — Intimate, deeply sincere]

Why can't I stop thinking about you?
What kind of spell did you put on me?

I don't want to forget you
I don't want to lose your face
I don't want the sound of your laughter
To become something I can't place

And if remembering you hurts
Then I guess I'll hurt sometimes
Because I wouldn't trade the memories
Just to get you off my mind

[Final Chorus — Tender, emotionally exposed]

I don't want to forget you
I don't want these memories to fade
I just wish that I could think of you
Without breaking down this way

I don't want you out of my head
I just wish it didn't hurt
To remember something beautiful
And feel my whole world fall apart

[Outro — Gentle, almost weightless]

I love thinking about you

I really do

I just wish

It didn't hurt so much

To have you on my mind...
