I Can’t Make You to Remember

I promised myself
Not to repeat past mistakes
When I chose you, and put a ring on it.
The way you make me feel
I've never been so addicted;
You a part of me now,
For better, for richer; for poorer, for worse.

I can't make you to remember
I keep trying, hoping you’ll see what we used to be
To have only the memory
Of us kissing in the moonlight
Long after midnight
Holding each other tight.
I get to bed every night
You avoid my touch, my kiss, judging me by past mistakes
I’m trying to make you remember what we used to be
Before I fell off the train, and kissed another girl
You see only the bad, selective memory

The way you make me feel like
The way you make me feel
You a part of me now,
For better, for worse; for richer, poorer
So when you avoid me, I hurt, I bleed
I can’t let you go now.
I'd fast and starve to keep you with me
I'd do anything for you babe
I'd do anything to make you have only the memory
Of us kissing in the moonlight
Long after midnight

Holding each other tight.
