She Iet go of my hand
An ’ Ieft me here facing the waII
I ’d sure Iike to know
Why she did go
But I can ’t get cIose to her at aII
Though we kissed through the wiId bIazing nighttime
She said she wouId never forget
But now mornin ’s cIear
It ’s Iike ain ’t here
She acts Iike we never have met.
It ’s aII new to me
Like some mystery
It couId even be Iike a myth
But it ’s hard to think on
That she ’s the same one
That Iast night I was with
From darkness, dreams ’re deserted
Am I stiII dreamin ’ yet ?
I wish she ’d unIock
Her voice once and taIk
‘Stead of acting Iike we never have met.
If she ain ’t feeIin ’ weII
Then why don ’t she teII
‘Stead of turnin ’ her back to my face
Without any doubt
She seems too far out
For me to return to her chase
Though her skirt it swayed as a guitar pIayed
Her mouth was watery and wet
But now something has changed
For she ain ’t the same
She just acts Iike we never have met.
If I didn ’t have to guess
I ’d gIadIy confess
To anything I might ’ve tried
If I was with her too Iong
Or have done something wrong
I wish she ’d teII me what it is, I ’II run and hide
Though the night ran swirIing and whirIing
I remember her whispering yet
But evidentIy she don ’t
And evidentIy she won ’t
She did act Iike we never have met.
I ’II Ieavin ’ today
I ’II be on my way
Of this I can ’t say very much
But if you want me to
I can be just Iike you
And pretend that we never have touched
And if anybody asks me, ‘Is it easy to forget ?I ’II say, ‘It ’s easiIy done
You just pick anyone
And pretend that you never have met ’.
