Single White Infidel - Won't Forget

Faded pictures, Polaroids and dust
Dated clothes and laughs and lifelong trust
Scanned in for posterity and digital eternity
And shared for all to see, pictures of us

Pages with the chords to silly songs
Played for no one else to sing along
Looking back, those promises meant nothing to you
Just ink that faded out 'til it was gone

This distance didn't make the heart grow fonder
The lists of my regrets have all grown longer
The forever that we had
Just manifestos in the sand
And when the floodgates busted open they were gone
But I won't forget

There are times where I lose sight of what I've learned
The times when I miss having you around
Some days I wanna sit around the fire with you
And other days I wanna watch it burn you to the ground

This distance didn't make the heart grow fonder
The lists of my regrets have all grown longer
The forever that we had
Just manifestos in the sand
And when the floodgates busted open they were gone
But I won't forget

The way you made me feel so suddenly alone
But there's seven bourbon whiskeys
With my name on them back home
And by number three I'm thinking I
Would have your back forever
But by the sixth I only wish I could
Erase you altogether

This distance didn't make the heart grow fonder
The lists of my regrets have all grown longer
The forever that we had
Just manifestos in the sand
And when the floodgates busted open they were gone
But I won't forget
