[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
And I can't forget (I can't forget)
I can't forget (I can't forget)
I can't forget but I don't remember what
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
And I can't forget (I can't forget)
I can't forget (I can't forget)
I can't forget but I don't remember who
[Bridge]
I'll be there today
With a big bouquet of cactus
I got this rig that runs on memories
And I promise, cross my heart
They'll never catch us
But if they do, just tell them it was me
[Verse 3]
Yeah 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
[Chorus]
And I can't forget (I can't forget)
I can't forget (I can't forget)
I can't forget but I don't remember what
