Don't Forget Me

Don't forget me everybody says
 At a certain age when everything is moving so fast
 Don't forget me every girl has said
 And I'll remember each and every one until I'm dead
 Don't forget me as the soul's diminishing the body's need to live
 Remembering the wish to sing and hopeful of what morning brings to life
 Not me.
 Don't forget me, those other boys forgot
 but I'm the one who did their bidding every time and did not
 To be forgotten is the most frightening thought
 for all those boys and girls and other friends whom time forgot
 Don't forget me as the soul's diminishing the body's need for love
 Remembering the wish to sing and hopeful of what morning brings to us
 Not me, not me, not me
 Don't forget me are the words she'd say
 When we were young and on the beach and all drenched in spray
 But when moon rose the sunburn still burned raw
 Cause through all the years there's really only one I saw
 And don't forget me is the whispered wish that travels my lips to your ears
 Five at fifteen is forever to remember the intervening years
 Not me (don't forget me)
