July 1955 Single Sun 223 Mystery Train / I Forgot To Remember To Forget





I forgot to remember to forget her
I can't seem to get her off my mind
I thought I'd never miss her
But I found out somehow
I think about her almost all the time.


* The day she went away I made myself a promise
That I'd soon forget we ever met
But something sure is wrong
'Cause I'm so blue and lonely.
I forgot to remember to forget


* Repeat 


Standard tuning.
