The Story of Forgetting Unintentionally I’ve forgotten Gradually I don’t care A mistake in the past wait for forgiveness no more It will soon be over When this song reaches the end Why do I choose to keep a distance Oh why do I burden all the pain and shame How I hope all I can remember is that I can remember no more I packed up my fondness Deep and robust To release would be a disaster For both of us It’s not time to lose hope It’s not right to destroy But it was meant to fail at ?rst It would last forever since the scratch Join the gamble or leave the table Hurry Before your existence is part of my life Ivy Lin Ivy Lin Un classico è un libro che ancora prima di essere ?nito ti dice quello che deve dire.
