“You’d be surprised at what a man can remember, take me f’instance, back in the 80’s, I was catching a train when I saw a woman in a red coat on the opposite platform. I don’t think she saw me, and I only saw her for a brief moment. But I tell you this, I bet a month hasn’t gone by since that I haven’t thought of her.”
Do you remember me,
As I remember you?
Or have you forgotten me,
As people tend to do?
Sweet nostalgia,
Sweet schadenfreude
Always makes me blue
I can’t help looking back
When I should be finding new
…Bygones, bygones
…Bygones, bygones
…Bygones, bygones
Always make me blue
You tied a knot in my heart
Some years ago,
Perhaps you believe
I’ve forgotten you?
Don’t even think it, no.
Sweet nostalgia,
Sweet schadenfreude
Always makes me blue
I can’t help looking back
I can’t get over you.
…Bygones, bygones
…Bygones, bygones
…Bygones, bygones
Always make me blue
Just when I think I’ve let you go,
The power of my heart, tells me no,
And you’re taking me back again
I’m always opening my heart to you
The sound of your silence is nothing new
And you’re taking me back,
Taking me back,
Again..
…Bygones, bygones
…Bygones, bygones
…Bygones, bygones
Always make me blue.
