Starting to Forget You

Intro

Oh-oh-oh... let the river flow...

He's walking through the silence of the night...

Verse 1

She stands (so close), yet miles away

I memorize the words I never say

I watch the way she laughs, I watch her smile

(Walking) down the street, just for a little while

I built a world where she and I are one

(Waiting) in the dark for a rising sun

Pre-Chorus

And I held my breath, and I held the line

Thinking maybe, just maybe, she’d be mine

But the universe had another plan in store

Chorus

And I am starting to forget you!

Choir: Let it go!

The face I used to pray for in the dark

I am starting to forget you!

Choir: Watch the embers fade!

Healing every broken piece and every scar

It hurts to breathe, but I'm breaking through

I am starting to forget you...

Verse 2

Then came a day, the sun refused to rise

I saw the light of a new love in her eyes

Another man's embrace, another's gentle hand

Spoken words

(Just like that... castles made of sand.)

He took the place I dreamed of all these years

And left me drowning in a sea of tears

Bridge

Alone... (so alone)

In the quiet room

Where my ghosts used to bloom

Do I let go of the pain?

Or do I drown in the rain?

Scream/High emotional belt

NO! I choose to live again!

Interlude

Chorus

And I am starting to forget you!

Choir: Let it go!

The face I used to pray for in the dark

I am starting to forget you!

Choir: Watch the embers fade!

Healing every broken piece and every scar

It hurts to breathe, but I'm breaking through

I am starting to forget you...

Outro

Free... at last...

The ghost is gone.

The night is past.
