SONG OF THE DAY

Yes, it's a silly love song, but if Paul McCartney can do it, then damn it, so can I.  Currently practicing how I'm playing and singing it, and singin' that bridge part is still a bit squidgy, but I'll get there before long and then record it for better or worse.

Can’t Forget

There’s a love that you remember

There’s a love you can’t forget

There’s a love so sweet and tender

There’s a love that makes you wet

There a love you’ve carried with you

That can always make you sad

Seems like nine times out of ten

That’s the love you never had

 

                But you can’t forget love

                When it’s found a way into your heart

                You can’t forget love

                Though it’ll tear your life apart

                You can’t forget love

                It’s the only thing that’s real

                Of the many things that we forget

                We remember well how love once made us feel

 

There’s a love that you can buy

There’s a love that you must earn

There’s a love that makes you cry

There’s a love that makes you burn

There’s a love that lies beside you

In the middle of the night

There’s a love that you’ve abandoned

’Cause it wasn’t worth the fight

                And you can’t forget love …

 

No one wants to be somebody else’s memory

Of a love they wish had never ever been

There’s no sunshine without rain

There’s no pleasure without pain

Sometimes you lose and other times you win 

You don’t get to dance unless you take a chance

If you don’t spin the wheel then you can’t play

Life's a crying shame

When you’re not even in the game

So just cross your fingers and seize the day

There’s a love that makes you foolish

There’s a love that makes you strong

There’s a love that makes you feel all right

Even when you know you’re wrong

There’s a love that makes you lose it

And come apart right at the seams

There’s a love that’s unattainable

You only find it in your dreams

                And you can’t forget love …
