I can´t understand, she let go of my hand
And left me here facing the wall
I´d sure like to know why she´d go
But I can´t get close to her at all
Though we kissed through the wild blazing nighttime
She said she would never forget
But now morning is clear, it´s like I ain´t here
She acts like we never met

It´s all new to me, like some mystery
It could even be like a myth
But it´s hard to think on that she´s the same one
That last night I was with
From darkness, dreams are deserted
Am I still dreamin´ yet?
I wish she´d unlock her voice once and talk
´Stead of actin´ like we never met

If she ain´t feelin´ well, then why don´t she tell
´Stead of turnin´ her back to my face?
Without any doubt, she seems too far out
For me to return to or chase
Well, her skirt had swayed as a guitar played
Her mouth was watery and wet
But now something has changed, for she ain´t the same
She just acts like we never have met

If I didn´t have to guess, I´d gladly confess
To anything I might´ve tried
If I was with her too long or have done something wrong
I´d wish she´d tell me what it is, I´ll run and hide
Though the night ran swirling and whirling
I remember her whispering yet
But evidently she don´t, evidently she won´t
She just acts like we never have met

I´m leavin´ today, I´ll be on my way
Of this I can´t say very much
But if you want me to, I can be just like you
And pretend that we never have touched
And if anybody asks me
"Is it easy to forget?"
I´ll say, "It´s easily done, you just pick anyone
And pretend that you never have met"
