The Black Suit

How can I Forget (I Remember) How to forget the forgotten? How to remember to remember? How can I not think about you? You the first love of my life The one that breathed life into me The one that stopped the world from spinning The one that gave my heart meaning I still remember when we first met The way we flirted The day I asked you out The movie we went to The first time our lips touched And the first gasp of air after that How can I forget that? The endless nights writing The first grounding The friday nights were ours The first time I cancelled plans The first time I heard your cries That time we slow-danced The parties and get-togethers Homecoming and your blue dress The first time we said I love you I remember the first time we made love I remember that light blue dress A dress fit for my angel The fights and disagreements The make-ups and happiness The first night we spent together The first breakfast together The cold walk that night Your warmth that same night Our first poor Valentine’s Day All challenges taken as a pair Our love reached legendary status A beacon for true loves Time passed yet it stood still From children to adults I recall the pregnancy scare I still feel those heavy tears of yours The dancing lessons and the clubs How can I be asked to forget it all? The time apart we spent The frequent miles traveled I remember those dark days The time we split The instant we got back The first night we loved again That day at the zoo Unforgettable that day was Then time passed I remember the proposal Your tear-filled response The ring my mother gave you The ring I picked for you Remember the lady that guessed our engagement? The happiest moment in my life I recall the change I remember the fights The last time we made love The last time we said I love you All but the last kiss I still hear those last words Everything from there is a blur We were both wrong and proud That was the day my world changed That is the day I remember How can I forget to remember the rest? Do you? How to forget the forgotten? How to remember to remember? How can I not think about you? You the first love of my life The one that breathed life into me The one that stopped the world from spinning The one that gave my heart meaning I still remember when we first met The way we flirted The day I asked you out The movie we went to The first time our lips touched And the first gasp of air after that How can I forget that? The endless nights writing The first grounding The friday nights were ours The first time I cancelled plans The first time I heard your cries That time we slow-danced The parties and get-togethers Homecoming and your blue dress The first time we said I love you I remember the first time we made love I remember that light blue dress A dress fit for my angel The fights and disagreements The make-ups and happiness The first night we spent together The first breakfast together The cold walk that night Your warmth that same night Our first poor Valentine’s Day All challenges taken as a pair Our love reached legendary status A beacon for true loves Time passed yet it stood still From children to adults I recall the pregnancy scare I still feel those heavy tears of yours The dancing lessons and the clubs How can I be asked to forget it all?
