Lyrics

I don't mind

I don't mind if you forget me Having learned my lesson I never left an impression on anyone

So now you send me your hardened "regards" When once you'd send me "love" Sincerely I must tell you Your mild "best wishes" They make me suspicious

I don't mind I don't mind if you forget me Having learned my lesson I never left an impression on anyone

The pressure to change, to move on Was strange and very strong So this is why I tell you I really do understand BYE BYE

I don't mind if you forget me No, no, no, no, no, no, no

You can only be strong for so long It may not eat you but it will beat you So this is why I tell you I really don't understand, this time REJECTION IS ONE THING BUT REJECTION FROM A FOOL IS CRUEL REJECTION IS ONE THING BUT REJECTION FROM A FOOL IS CRUEL

And I don't mind if you forget me I don't mind if your forget me
