I can't pretend that it never happened
Why are your eyes asking me if I can
I been turned down and turned on by my own best friend
It's got me hurtin' like my old self again
Forgiving ain't the same as forgetting
Can only half choose magnanimity
To forget my mind can't just shut off and erase
But forgiveness that is something I can fake
I can't pretend that it never happened
Why are your eyes asking me if I can
I'm too old to let myself be told I'm too feelin'
And too young to think that I can't start again
