| Lyrics: | Her birthday came and went without a card, or a single I love you
On their anniversary she
sat all alone at a table set for two
She tries her best to please him, but she never hears
one single word of praise
She feels just like a stranger, in a home where love has seen its
better days
Well he's taken her for granted
God only knows why she keeps
hangin' on
'Cause it's better to be gone, but not forgotten
Than to be forgotten,
but not gone
Somehow he can't remember, when he's late to even take the time to
call
And even on the nights he's there she gets the feeling he's not there at all
She's become a prisoner in that big old house where sweet love used to be
Well, it's not
even over but Lord she feels just like a memory
Well he's taken her for granted
God only knows why she keeps hangin' on
'Cause it's better to be gone, but not
forgotten
Than to be forgotten, but not gone
'Cause it's better to be
gone, but not forgotten
Gone, but not forgotten
Than to be forgotten, but not gone |
