  • Lately I've been living in a dream
    The past feels like a better place to be
    The days we spent just sitting by the sea
    Empyrean skies can't compete with those eyes
    The colors of that dress you loved to wear
    The way the sun got tangled in your hair

    I remember everything
    So why do I

    I get this feeling like I'm fading from your memory
    So I wrote this song and called it "Don't Forget Me"
    Every time you hear it will you smile?
    And tell the one you're with I was that guy
    Ooh, even though you had to let me go
    Don't forget me
    Just don't forget me

    Every time I think about it now
    I guess we never really figured out
    To hold each other through the ups and downs
    The difficult nights, the times that we cried
    I hope he knows it's special what he has
    I hope he thinks it's magic when you laugh

    'Cause I remember everything
    So why do I

    I get this feeling like I'm fading from your memory
    So I wrote this song and called it "Don't Forget Me"
    Every time you hear it will you smile?
    And tell the one you're with I was that guy
    Ooh, even though you had to let me go
    Don't forget me
    Just don't forget me

    On that one night, it was so right
    You were all mine
    How could we let it go?
    That one night was my whole life
    And we stopped time
    How could we let it go?
    That one night, it was so right
    You were all mine
    How could we let it go?
    That one night was my whole life
    And we stopped time
    But I

    I get this feeling like I'm fading from your memory
    So I wrote this song and called it "Don't Forget Me"
    Every time you hear it will you smile?
    And tell the one you're with I was that guy
    Ooh, even though you had to let me go
    Don't forget me
    Just don't forget me Writer/s: Dermot Kennedy, Steven McCutcheon
