Forever Tender Blue Songtext
von The Joy Hotel

What am I to do
Now you fall asleep with someone new?
Should I forget?
Pretend we never met?
Start forgetting you?
What else can I do?

When I reflect
It′s far less picturesque
Now I'm empty
And emptiness hurts
What′s worse
Is you may just forget me


So now it's grace, cigarettes and cheap wine
And I'm glad I knew you
Even just for a short time
And you may never need a song like mine
Until you do
If the wonder warps and fades
And if you forget our powder days
I′ll do the same
A brief but lovely flame
A fleeting fortnight haze
Gone quick as it came

When you reflect
Is there anything left
Of our time in your memory?
And if I leave now
And don′t return
My concern is you let me

So now it's grace, cigarettes and cheap wine
And I′m glad I knew you
Even just for a short time
And you may never need a song like mine
Until you do
Forever tender blue

So now it's grace, cigarettes and cheap wine
And I′m glad I knew you
Even just for a short time
And you may never need a song like mine
Until you do
Forever tender blue
