[Chorus]
Don’t try to make yourself remember, darling
#* *
Don’t look for me, I’m just a story you’ve been told
So let’s pretend a little longer
Cause when we’re gone,
Everything goes on
[Verse 1]
Well, you were staring at the window
And I said, “I’ll just bring the sea to you”
But if I was gone tomorrow, Won’t the waves crash on?

Is it selfish that I’m happy, As we pass the setting sun?

[Chorus]
Don’t try to make yourself remember, darling
#* *
Don’t look for me, I’m just a story you’ve been told
So let’s pretend a little longer
Cause when we’re gone,
Everything goes on
[Verse 2]
And I’m so scared of getting used to this
All the vines that keep you tethered in your room
Said, "I’m sorry that you worried"
But don’t apologize
I told you to forget me
#*
But you stayed by my side
*
When I said:
[Chorus]
"Don’t try to make yourself remember, darling
#* *
Don’t look for me, I’m just a story you’ve been told"
So let’s pretend a little longer
And when we’re gone,
Everything goes on
