soon I'll be forgetting you

When it comes to you, I'm a little slow;
thought my charm made up for sense I lack.
And sure it took me a little while
To figure you weren't comin back.

But did you have to pull a fast one?
Slowly slip away so i wouldn't see?
I admit I didn't see it coming
That day you walked out on me.

When I said I was sorry,
Did you have to agree?
When you said "see ya tomorrow"
Did you know you were leaving me?
Was all this so confusing?
Was it too hard to figure out?
Forget the rest --
I'm gonna give it a rest
Soon I'll be forgettin you

When we started out, it was sweet --
It felt like we were such long-time friends
The kind we've known since we were just kids
And you asked me where I had been.

And you were such the spittin image
Of a dream I have always had
And the way that you always held my hand...
I never dreamed you could leave me like that

When I said I was sorry,
Did you have to agree?
When you said "see ya tomorrow"
Did you know you were leaving me?
Was all this so confusing?
Was it too hard to figure out?
Forget the rest --
I'm gonna give it a rest
Soon I'll be forgettin you

As for loving you, there's something I know
took me a while to figure this all out --
I put you on some kind of pedestal
And now I can take you down

Even though you tried t'pull a fast one,
and slip away so I wouldn't see--
I'm so prepared; gonna see it coming
The next time you walk out on me

When I said I was sorry,
Did you have to agree?
When you said "see ya tomorrow"
Did you know you were leaving me?
Was all this so confusing?
Was it too hard to figure out?
Forget the rest --
I'm gonna give it a rest
Soon I'll be forgettin you
