Текст Carly Simon – I Forget

All my doctors and friends
Have concocted these theories
Weary of seeing me day after day
On the edge of my bed

And it’s been this way for quite a while
Yes, I forget how to smile
I’d like to rely on my old game and yet
Even that I forget
It’s not there, I regret

Couldn’t get up today
I pretended a fever
Any excuse but the truth will do
I don’t lie very well
No I’m not a deceiver
But I can’t bring myself to admit that I’m blue

And it’s been this way
For quite a while
Yes, I forget how to smile
I’d like to rely on my old game and yet
Even that I forget
It’s not there, I regret

The clock and the calendar
Both an assault
Time goes so slow
It must be my fault
I act like I’m okay
When I’m not okay at all

I forget what to do
I forget what it all means
Don’t remember if love ever really felt good
I forget to be here
And not in-between
I’d put on a good show
If only I could

And it’s been this way for quite a while
Yes, I forget how to smile
I’d like to rely on my old game and yet
Even that I forget
It’s not there, I regret
I forget
