It Will Not Be Forgotten

Seven months to the day since I saw your face

You're on the earth like a fire holding out to the bitter end

You're holding on to the bitter end



I take a walk in the town

It's like a dead in the street

The sidewalk sings your name underneath my feet

It goes on, forgotten no



Baby, where did you go?

Did you sail away over some distant ocean?

Darling, what we had

It cannot be taken

It cannot be stolen

And it won't be forgotten

No, it won't be forgotten



Summer disappears like a dream I had

And winter comes with a knife that cuts you down

And it never ends

Ooh, it never ends



I hurry past the place you like to drink alone

Seven months to the day you left me here on this avenue

And now I think of you



Baby, where did you go?

Did you sail away over some distant ocean?

Darling, what we had

It cannot be taken

It cannot be broken

And it won't be forgotten

No, it won't be forgotten



Seven months to the day and you don't leave a trace

I searched the cracks in the ground, the tallest buildings

They never knew

Oh, they never knew



Baby, where did you go?

Did you sail away over some distant ocean?

Darling, what we had

It cannot be taken

It cannot be stolen

And it won't be forgotten



Baby, where did you go?

Did you sail away over some distant ocean?

Darling, what we had

It cannot be taken

It cannot be stolen

And it won't be forgotten

No, it won't be forgotten
