How Can I Forget You? (The Benedektion)

Some men are frightened by their dreams

Holding on to innocence, sadder than it seems

Such men are shattered by extremes

They believe that happiness is somewhere in-between

I’ll take my chances

For I am not afraid to succeed

How I can forget you

There’s no reason why

I cannot forget you

I won’t even try

Sometimes my mind will drift away

Like a carnival balloon on a windy day

And I’m transported back in time

That unexpected rendezvous, that old canary isle

My eyes adored you

And drove all the other senses wild

How I can forget you

There’s no reason why

I cannot forget you

I won’t even try

At last the past is catching up to me

At last my heart demands captivity

And now the point is to return

Yes I’ve been in love before, no I’ll never learn

I’ll take my chances

For I am governed by my fantasies

How I can forget you

There’s no reason why

I cannot forget you

I won’t even try

How I can forget you

There’s no reason why

I cannot forget you

I won’t even try
