The hardest thing I'd ever do,
Is say goodbye and walk slowly away from you.
But I'll do it.
And after all this time I shared with you,
It seems unfair to leave with nothing more than blank stares.
But I'll do it.

If it's for the best, then I wish you well,
If it helps to say our life was a living hell,
Well then do it, then do it, then do it.

[Chorus:]
Don't you ever forget about me.
When you toss and turn in your sleep,
I hope it's because you can't stop thinking about,
The reasons why you close your eyes,
I haunt your dreams at night.
So you can't stop thinking about me.
Don't stop thinking about me.

Do you really think you could see this through,
Put on a smile and wear it for someone new?
Don't you do it!
'Cause I know I'm not the easiest one to love,
But every ounce I have,
I invest in you.
But no one said love's not for taking chances.

[Chorus:]
So don't you ever forget about me.
When you toss and turn in your sleep,
I hope it's because you can't stop thinking about,
The reasons why you close your eyes,
I haunt your dreams at night.
And so you can't stop thinking about me (can't stop thinking about me)

Will you take me back in the morning,
If I promise to never act this way again?
Oh Oh
'Cause I'm so bad at being lonely,
But I don't know how (don't know how),
I don't know how.

[Chorus:]
So don't you ever forget about me.
Don't you ever forget about me!
[Chorus:]
Don't you ever forget about me.
When you toss and turn in your sleep,
I hope it's because you can't stop thinking about,
The reasons why you close your eyes,
I haunt your dreams at night.
So you can't stop thinking about me (don't stop thinking about me).
Just close your eyes,
And fall asleep tonight.
