The way I see it it's no sin The way I held you in the dark It was the right way to begin Tell me why can't I forget about you
Stayed out drinking with my friends Dancing with a girl or two You know the story but the tale never ends Tell me why can't I forget about you
Why can't I forget about you Why can't I forget about you Why can't I forget about you Why can't I forget about you
Leaving town just to forget Many miles away from you Nothing to go back to Tell me why can't I forget about you
Mosquitoes circling the pale porch light They don't know that it ain't no use When thoughts come running in the middle of the night I can't believe I'm loosing you
Tell me why can't I forget about you Why can't I forget about you Why can't I forget about you Why can't I forget about you Why can't I forget about you
