I stopped by your house just the other day
Caught just a glimpse as you drove away
You looked really cool with your hair that way

I tried to pretend that you didn't see
But I know that you did 'cause you looked at me
Ain't it strange how we deal with reality

Don't you forget me, no, not this way
I still believe straight from the heart
Don't you forget me, I thought you'd stay
How can you let this fall apart?

I don't understand where you're coming from
You say to your friends that there's something wrong
Does it feel like I'm coming on too strong?

The walls that you build won't get in my way
I don't care what you do, I can climb all day
Give me time just to hear what I have to say

Don't you forget me, no, not this way
I still believe straight from the heart
Don't you forget me, I thought you'd stay
How can you let this fall apart?

I stopped by your house just the other day
Caught just a glimpse as you drove away
You looked really cool with your hair that way, yea

I tried to pretend that you didn't see
But I know that you did 'cause you looked at me
Strange how we deal with reality

Don't you forget me, no, not this way
I still believe straight from the heart
Don't you forget me, I thought you'd stay
How can you let this fall apart?

Don't you forget me, yea, not this way
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, baby
Don't you forget me, yea
How can you let this fall apart?
