Lyrics
When Will I Ever Forget About You Laurie Dameron
You keep breakin' my heart
I swear it's tearin' me apart
When will I ever forget about you?
You keep jackin' me around
When will I ever forget about you?
But we keep comin' back for more
Both of us wounded .... Both of us weary of war
The last trick was enough
You taught me all about non-monogamous love
Now maybe I can forget about you
You showed me your insane
Well so am I but you're the one who's vain
Now maybe I can forget about you
Said you thought it would be alright by me
To be foolin' around, thought we were bound
I bet so did she
Bridge:
Guess I didn't know you
Where did your integrity go?
Guess you didn't know me
But then how would you know.....anything about love
Now that I don't understand
I gotta leave it behind, have a good time, for me I got to give dam
But will I ever forget about you?
I think I'm sane
More or less through the pain
But will I ever forget about you?
First I'm gettin' up then you're gettin' down
