To Forget You (1971) [feat. Ginnie Pallone Mollner]

From the High Desert in the majestic American west

I bid you all good evening or good morning or good afternoon

Wherever you may be across this great land of ours

This is the world famous Shore to Spooky Shore AM, dark night in the desert

And I'm Art Pallone

I'm feeling nostalgic tonight, so before we have our first guest

I'd like to kick things off with a song

This delectable ditty from back in 1971 is like a diamond

Dust it off and it'll never lose its shine

Ginnie Pallone Mollner was the most popular singer in my house growing up

Bet I'm not the only one

Here she is with one of her very best, certainly one of my favorites

"To Forget You"

Looked like rain when you drove away

I was already cold

Last night seems so long ago

I can feel it in my stomach

I feel it in my bones

And now it feels like summer

What a long and lonely road

And I packed my bags and I made my bed

But I don't know why I ever left you

So I learned the words and memorized the tune

But I just can't remember to forget you

To forget you

On the metro, that pretty face

Wouldn't give us the time

But I was yours and you were mine

Getting spaced and walking barefoot

On cobblestones at night

And now, I'm left with this aching

I can feel you in my spine

So I packed my bags and I made my bed

But I don't know why I ever left you

So I learned the words and memorized the tune

But I just can't remember to forget you

To forget you

I miss you in the morning

And I want you bad at night

Next time, I'll heed the warning

And never leave your side

And I packed my bags and I made my bed

But I don't know why I ever left you

So I learned the words and memorized the tune

But I just can't remember to forget you

To forget you

To forget you

Oh, ooh
