Promise to forget me when you go
Because i will be waiting right here the minute you get home
Promise to forget me when you leave
Cause there's no point in crying, when your heart is on your sleeve
Thank you for your words, they meant everything to
But promise to forget them, when you sail across the sea
Promise to forget me when you're gone
Cause you know you'll get my letter in the mail before very long
Promise to forget me when you can't fall asleep
There are many more important things in this world instead of me
Thank you for your words, they meant everything to me
But promise to forget them, when you sail across the sea
Promise to forget me, even while you're here
Because i want your future to remain open and clear
Promise to forget me because no matter what you do
You may forget me, but i will never forget you
So thank you for your words because without them there's no me
I'll keep them close to my hollow bones as i wait Beside the sea
