I Can't Remember the Song

I Can't Remember the Song

1. Once again, we�re at the crossroads 
of forever or goodbye.
I�d do anything to make this work
 but all I do is make you cry.

2.  You say we�re just too different.  
What�s made you change your mind?
Are you scared of the commitment now, 
or does it all come down to pride?

* Our music would sing across the river
And love would dance us til the dawn.
Somehow our hearts lost the rhythm 
and I can�t remember the song.

3.  So now I stand before you 
like a soldier home from war.
I don�t quite know where I belong 
or if I�m wanted anymore.

4.  You say there�s words you had to hear from me.
Things you needed me to prove.
I couldn�t show you how I felt. 
Guess I put the blame on you.

* Our music would sing across the river
And love would dance us til the dawn.
Somehow our hearts lost the rhythm 
and I can�t remember the song.

# There�s nothing but the whisper of the wind.
What will bring our music back again?

* Our music would sing across the river
And love would dance us til the dawn.
Somehow our hearts lost the rhythm 
and I can�t remember the song.

Tagore

I got the title from my brother, Scott. (Yes, the same Scottie from "Marilyn's Ghost.") He said, "Wouldn't that be funny to have a song called, "I Can't Remember the Song." Think about people asking for it at the record store or to a DJ. "Could you please play I can't remember the song?"

So once again, I had a title and no theme. I then overheard two lovers saying, "well, I guess we have to decide whether this is forever or goodbye." I wrote the quote down in the geeky songwriter's notebook I always carry around with me.

I thought of my past relationships and the song immediately came together. (Ya gotta love these "gift songs." You know, the ones that just HAPPEN and you don't know how or why, but you sure are thankful for them.)
