When I first saw that face
I thought I fell in love and so I chased
Everyday
Then it turned out she lied
That smile was a disguise; she was not who I
Was waiting for
Oh the pain she gave me deep inside my soul
This is what I said as I walked out of the door
I'm gonna run away, gonna start all over again
Gonna try to forget, got a lot of time to spend
Gonna turn up the music as I drive to the place
Where I'll spend my life doing everything to
Forget your face
God help me forget that face
She was newly gone
I hadn't moved on before you latched
By my side
Time stood still that night
And I still see you there in that light
What a sight
One week became two years, now the kids are all we hear
And I still dream about the day we left our old lives in the rear
And we ran away and we started all over again
Never gonna forget all the time we got to spend
And I turned up the music as we drove to the place
Where we spent our lives, oh I'm never gonna
Forget your face
How could I forget her face
Then we got the news
Almost certain we would lose you so soon
It was out of the blue
After all our tears
We had one last talk down here and you said dear, "I forget your face"
My dry eyes swelled up as I forced a smile
All I managed to say was "see you in a while"
And they asked me something that I just can't recall
So I turned to them and said "if I'm needed just give me a call
Cause I'm gonna run away, gonna start all over again
Gonna try to forget all the time I'll have to spend
Gonna shut off the music as I cry in the place
Where I'll pray 'oh Lord, never let me
Forget her face"
I will never forget your face
About a year from the day
Our first grandchild was born her name was May
A ray of life
I hadn't drove that fast in years
I went as fast as I could steer, first time I felt
Anything be clear
My first born wrapped her in a swaddle with butterflies
Took one look and I knew I recognized her eyes
So I'm gonna stay right here
Gonna start all over again
Never let her forget what her grandma woulda said
Gonna turn down her music as I drive her to play
God answered my prayer cuz I'm never gonna
Forget her face
Now I'll never forget your face!
