I Can't Forget Lyrics

                             Leonard Cohen
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

             I stumbled out of bed
             I got ready for the struggle
             I smoked a cigarette and I tightened up my gut
             I said this can't be me, must be my double
             And I can't forget, I can't forget, I can't forget
             But I don't remember what

             I'm burning up the road
             I'm heading down to Phoenix
             I got this old address of someone that I knew
             It was high and fine and free
             Ah you should have seen us
             And I can't forget, I can't forget, I can't forget
             But I don't remember who

             I'll be there today with a big bouquet of cactus
             I got this rig that runs on memory
             And I promise, cross my heart, they'll never catch us
             But it they do just tell them it was me

             I loved you all my life, and that's how I want to end it
             The summer's almost gone
             The winter's tuning up
             Yeah, the summer s gone but a lot goes on forever
             And I can't forget, I can't forget, I can't forget
             But I don't remember what
