Lyrics

Unforgettable

[Verse 1]

Unforgettable, that's just what you are

You're unforgettable, near to me or far

Like a song of love that clings to me

How the thought of you does silly little things to me

Never before has someone in my life meant more

[Verse 2]

You're unforgettable in every way

And forever more, that's just how you'll stay

That's why, darling, it's so incredible

That someone so unforgettable

Thinks that I'm unforgettable, too

[Outro]

That's why, that's why, that's why, that's why

Darling, it's so incredible

That someone like you, so unforgettable

You think that I'm unforgettable, too
