Verse 1
You were just so different
In your own beautiful ways
I was chasing some sort of stupid perfection
We’d go back and forth, I’d say I’d walk away
I never saw the way that you cared for me,
Never saw the tears you cried for me.
Maybe I just never knew the ways you could love me so dearly.

Chorus
Hope you don’t try to forget me,
even though you wont look at me.
Maybe I’ve hurt you i’m sorry
So do you think you could
Let me love you again

Verse 2
I’ve made my mistakes,
With all the words I said 
And when I turn to find you by my side,
You are not there, no longer mine
You’re with someone else who gets to hold you close
He might be better, maybe that is true,
And I’ll never know if he’s someone who could love you so dearly.

Chorus
Hope you don’t try to forget me,
even though you wont look at me.
Maybe I’ve hurt you i’m sorry
So do you think you could
Let me love you again

don't forget me

Your mother named you after someone bright 
and you play Lana on repeat at night  
You light me up, then you ghost in the dark
You shine so bright then you break like a spark

You’re Mr. Lightbulb, burning out slow  
Shadows in the night just don’t let me go  
You’re Mr. Lightbulb, flicker and fade
Just like my night light, can’t look away

I gave you names that never felt alright
A joke that I made that kept you up at night
You hide your thoughts, then you lock them away
I should have called you the right name that day

You’re Mr. Lightbulb, burning out slow  
Shadows in the night just don’t let me go  
You’re Mr. Lightbulb, flicker and fade
Just like my night light, can’t look away

Cuz im scared of the dark
And I can’t turn you off
Now your glow starts to fade
Please don’t leave me alone

Cuz im scared of the dark
And I can’t turn you off
Now your glow starts to fade
Please don’t leave me alone

Alone….

You chase a name that the whole world can see
The only one that you need was from me

You’re Mr. Lightbulb, burning out slow  
Shadows in the night just don’t let me go  
You’re Mr. Lightbulb, flicker and fade
Just like my night light, can’t look away

don't forget me
