Brian Yorkey - Song Of Forgetting lyrics

[DAN] This house and all these rooms Last Christmas or last year Out back the dogwood blooms [DIANA] Do I really live here? [DAN] The paint, the walls All this gla** and wood You don't recall? [DIANA] How I wish I could... [DAN] Our house on Walton Way The house with the red door Our trip to San Tropez The whole week a downpour [NATALIE] My first few steps And my first lost tooth What, nothing yet? [DIANA] Well, to tell the truth... [DAN] Sing a song of forgetting A song of the way things were not Sing of what's lost to you Of times that you never knew Sing of not remembering when Of memories that go unremembered and then Sing a song of forgetting, again That day our child was born Our baby girl's first cry That gray and drizzly morn I've never felt so high [DIANA] The day we met And we shared two beers [DAN] Then? [DIANA] I forget [DAN] But that's nineteen years [NATALIE] What a lovely cure It's a medical miracle With a mind so pure That she doesn't know anything [DAN] It's there, I'm sure Cause memories don't die They don't die They don't die [NATALIE] Why? They die [DIANA] I try... [DAN] Sing a song of forgetting A song of the way things were not Sing of what's lost to you Of times that you never knew [NATALIE/DIANA] Sing a song of forgetting A song of the way things were not What's lost to you, what's lost to you You never knew [ALL] Sing of not remembering when Of memories that go unremembered and then [DAN] Sing a song of forgetting [NATALIE] Sing a song of forgetting [DIANA] Sing a song of forgetting... [ALL] Again
