For You To Forget Me

By Bruce Clifford

Do you miss me since I've been gone
Do you remember how we used to get along
Do you dream at night of memories we once shared
Do you hold them tight as if you really cared

So you left me hanging by a thread
You don't even listen to what we once said
And you don't respect me and you made it so clear
For you to forget me was the one thing I feared

Do you remember how it all began
Do you ever think about the things we didn't understand
Do you sleep at night with all the memories we shared
Do you still hold them tight as if you really cared

So you left me hanging by a thread
You've never listened to anything we said
You don't give a damn and you made it so clear
For you to forget me was the one thing I feared

So you left me twisting in the wind
You've never got beyond the will to win
You don't give us a second thought and you hold nothing near
For you to forget me was the one thing I feared

I've had enough of this life
It never mattered to you what was wrong or right
No matter what I try
This time I really mean goodbye
