She Wanted to Forget (KC.55)
Lyrics
She Wanted to Forget (Ken Clinger)
she wanted to forget all she had seen
the mem’ries wouldn’t go away
she wanted to forget where she had been
erase the path that led astray
to reinterpret what it seemed to mean
to return color to the gray
a distant motion
a childhood dream returning
a secret fantasy
empathic interplay
she wanted to forget all she had known
her thoughts had brought her to this place
she wanted to forget she was alone
no path behind her to retrace
this darkness mocking thoughts that she had grown
her failure reaching saving grace
somewhere a light
somewhere the sunshine falling
melt away darkness
obscuring the view
somewhere a sound
somewhere a voice is calling
calling a name
calling to you
she wants to be aware of what she knows
when outer darkness melts away
regain the innocence that instinct shows
beyond the doubts in light of day
a place beyond this life where wonder grows
into the here & now to stay
a distant motion
a childhood dream returning
a secret fantasy
empathic interplay
