Two lonely people
One lonely night
Room full of strangers
Like you and I
Laughing and talking
Trying to hide
The aching that’s breaking inside

We’re here together
A little afraid
Needing each other
But in two different ways
Somehow we know
even though we’ve just met
I’m here to remember
You’re here to forget

Oh but why don’t we
dance this dance
Oh but why don’t
you hold me close
Though we both can
see tonight may be
As far as it goes
I can’t promise forever
I just can’t do that yet
I’m here to remember
And you’re here to forget

There’s something about you
has taken me by surprise
I wasn’t looking
For what I found in your eyes
I gotta stop feeling these
feelings I get
Cos you’re here to make memories
And I’m not over mine yet

Oh but why don’t
we dance this dance
Oh but why don’t
you hold me close
Though we both can see
tonight may be
As far as it goes
I can’t promise forever
I just can’t do that yet
I’m here to remember
And you’re here to forget

I’m here to remember
And you’re to forget
