Track byThe Marvelettes
I found your words amongst your memories For me to read when you are gone And whence in time, I could not ever know That tear-drop fell upon your note (And it read) "Please, forget-me-not I may be gone, but not forever" I'm home from work, so hard to turn the key (I had to let you in) But it's so cold for this time of year I see you and I smile Then you turned away, The mirror doth betray I know you hide your pain, In my head I say Please, Forget-me-not I may be gone, but not forever One day, when you're alone And maybe think you're on your own I'll be there with you We know that our last Summer has gone But I don't want to face The Fall alone This world, alone, has gone Alone we're born unto this world and Alone we'll leave, to where our summer has gone We bend to kiss, I softly touch your hair (Just like we did in Spring) My fingers, numb now, can barely feel Once upon a time I'd have almost flown that flight of stairs My failing hands now grip the balustrade Inside my heart I'm singing . . . Please, Forget-me-not I may be gone, but not forever One day, when you're alone And maybe think you're on your own I'll be there with you
