don't forget me

don't forget me
I exist
please don't cross me
off your list
I'm someone
who used to be your friend
don't forget me
I'm still here
I have not
disappeared
I'm knocking on your door
again 

          please
          don't forget me

don't forget me
here I am
I am not
a traffic jam
I'll give you
all the freedom that you need
don't forget me
I'm alive
I'm not a case of
shuck and jive
I'm someone who has
shared your history

          please
          don't forget me

don't expect me
to go away
listen to the words I say
I'm begging now
don't put me in the past
don't ignore me
I'm standing here
the line is drawn
the coast is clear
don't think of me
as something that couldn't last

          please
          don't forget me

don't forget me
I exist
please don't cross me
off your list
I'm someone
who used to be your friend
