I have the world's worst memory Many times a day, I say, Where did I leave my key? Where have I put my purse? Where else should I be? It's perverse A life of hide-and-seek I never know the date and worse, The day of the week
So, why can't I forget The day I met him? He held the door and let me go ahead Rushing to our separate lives We took a walk instead Why can't I forget him And every word he said?
I'm always sending Christmas cards They're more interesting in spring Only my banker knows The checks I forgot to sign Where did I get these clothes? They're not mine! I made myself a list Of things I really have to find But where is that list?
So, why can't I forget Those summer evenings He'd wait for me outside our small cafe? We were both like kids again We had so much to say Why can't I forget him? It's funny in a way
Funny just remembering The way we laughed at ev'rything I found the one that I'd been waiting for I could hardly recognize The woman I was in his eyes, A woman I had never known before
Why can't I forget The way he touched me? I see his face, desire in his eyes, The smile he gave to no one else, His silences and sighs Why can't I forget The way he loved me, The way I loved him, And the way he said goodbye?

Here you come again, just when I've begun to get myself together, you waltz right in the door, just like you've done before and wrap my heart 'round your little finger.
Here you come again, just when I'm about to make it work without you, you look into my eyes and lie those pretty lies and pretty soon I'm wond'rin how I came to doubt you.
All you gotta do is smile that smile and there go all my defenses. Just leave it up to you and in a little while you're messin' up my mind and fillin' up my senses. Here you come again lookin' better than a body has a right to; and shakin' me up so that all I really know is here you come again and here I go.

Here you come again lookin' better than a body has a right to; and shakin' me up so that all I really know is here you come again and here I go and here I go
When I'm with you, I need nothing more Night's an open door To forever But I know, love, When I'm far from home, Every day alone Seems a lifetime
But sometime soon, I'll be there And I'll hold you We'll make the light shine Through the clouds We'll make the sun sing Right out loud And we'll make the night smile With the moon Sometime soon Sometime soon Sometime soon
I feel stronger When I think of you And know we'll make it through 'Till we're together I can touch you Although you're not here Memory brings you nearer Than the night is
Sometime soon, I'll be there And I'll hold you We'll make the light shine Through the clouds We'll make the sun sing Right out loud And we'll make the night smile With the moon Sometime soon Sometime soon Sometime soon
And we'll make the night smile With the moon Sometime soon Sometime soon Sometime soon
I tell myself I'm not looking for love I tell myself it's the last thing I'm thinking of I've got no expectations And I mean just what I say Then I look into his eyes Damned if I don't lose my head And I wonder how I thought Those things I said
It's the state of the heart, State of the heart Ready to risk it all, Willing to fall There are ways to keep it safe, Ways to play it smart But I've never learned the art It's just the state of the heart State of the heart
I ought to know time never stands still I ought to know but I always believe it will I've had those perfect moments Turn to days of silent pain But I hate to turn away If there's a chance, he's the one I admit that I'm no good At sleep and run
That's the state of the heart, State of the heart Ready to risk it all, Willing to fall There are ways to keep it safe, Ways to play it smart But I've never learned the art That's just the state of the heart State of the heart
But I hate to turn away If there's a chance, he's the one I admit that I'm no good At sleep and run
That's the state of the heart, The state of the heart Ready to risk it all, Willing to fall There are ways to keep it safe There are ways to play it smart But I've never learned the art That's just the state of the heart State of the heart
State of the heart State of the heart State of the heart
Love can be so hard to find Dreams are never free Time runs out forever Like sand into the sea We're so lucky, you and I And night's the place to be
So, tell me a bedtime story And touch away our cares Make a world for us And take me there Just tell me a bedtime story Of lovers and of friends Make a world for both of us That never ends
Erase the thoughts that crowd my mind Chase my fears away Promise that tomorrow Will be better than today Oh, we're so lucky, you and I Don't ever go away
Just tell me a bedtime story And touch away our cares Make a world for us And take me there Just tell me a bedtime story Of lovers and of friends Make a world for both of us That never ends
Love, work those miracles That only love can do Make the cold world warm again Just hold me, hold me
Tell me a bedtime story And touch away our cares Make a world for us And take me there Just tell me a bedtime story Of lovers and of friends Make a world for both of us That never ends That never ends
