Forgetful as Can Be

Forgetful as Can Be written by Lisa Sanders

[Intro]
I’m forgetful, forgetful as can be.
Lost my keys, but found my soul, mmm

[Verse 1]
Left my coffee on the counter, my phone’s still in the car
But it doesn’t matter, ‘cause I remember who you are

I left my shoes out in the rain, my jacket by the door,

But darling, it’s all fine, ’cause you’re the one I’m living for.

[Chorus]
Oh, I’m forgetful, forgetful as can be,
Oh, I’m forgetful, but don’t forget about me.

I might miss a step, but I’m still who I should be,

But don’t you worry, don’t worry about little ol’ me.

[Verse 2]
Tried to make a list, but I lost my pen,

My thoughts keep drifting, then fade in again.

I left my sweater on my office chair
And I can’t remember why I even went there.

[Chorus]

Oh, I’m forgetful, forgetful as can be,
Oh, I’m forgetful, but don’t forget about me.

I might miss a step, but I’m still who I should be,

But don’t you worry, don’t worry about little ol’ me

[Verse 3]

If I leave the stove on, don’t blame me, but instead

Let me write you a story, about how to bake cornbread.

As the world gets blurrier, eyeglasses atop my head,

I hope this condition doesn’t cause me to see fiery red.

[Chorus]
Oh, I’m forgetful, forgetful as can be,
Oh, I’m forgetful, but don’t forget about me.

I might miss a step, but I’m still who I should be,

But don’t you worry, don’t worry about little ol’ me

[Outro]
Oh yeah, I’m forgetful, forgetful as can be,

I got sometimers, most of the time – you see.

Absentminded, scatterbrained, fuzzy, hazy, distracted

Spacey, mindless, ditsy, oblivious, preoccupied
