Forget Your Face

When I first saw that face I thought I fell in love and so I chased Everyday Then it turned out she lied That smile was a disguise; she was not who I Was waiting for Oh the pain she gave me deep inside my soul This is what I said as I walked out of the door I'm gonna run away, gonna start all over again Gonna try to forget, got a lot of time to spend Gonna turn up the music as I drive to the place Where I'll spend my life doing everything to Forget your face God help me forget that face She was newly gone I hadn't moved on before you latched By my side Time stood still that night And I still see you there in that light What a sight One week became two years, now the kids are all we hear And I still dream about the day we left our old lives in the rear And we ran away and we started all over again Never gonna forget all the time we got to spend And I turned up the music as we drove to the place Where we spent our lives, oh I'm never gonna Forget your face How could I forget her face Then we got the news Almost certain we would lose you so soon It was out of the blue After all our tears We had one last talk down here and you said dear, "I forget your face" My dry eyes swelled up as I forced a smile All I managed to say was "see you in a while" And they asked me something that I just can't recall So I turned to them and said "if I'm needed just give me a call Cause I'm gonna run away, gonna start all over again Gonna try to forget all the time I'll have to spend Gonna shut off the music as I cry in the place Where I'll pray 'oh Lord, never let me forget her face" I will never forget your face About a year from the day Our first grandchild was born her name was May A ray of life I hadn't drove that fast in years I went as fast as I could steer, first time I felt Anything be clear My first born wrapped her in a swaddle with butterflies Took one look and I knew I recognized her eyes So I'm gonna stay right here Gonna start all over again Never let her forget what her grandma woulda said Gonna turn down her music as I drive her to play God answered my prayer cuz I'm never gonna forget her face Now I'll never forget your face!
