You think you know the smile on her lips the thrill at the touch of her fingertips But I forgot more than you'll ever know about her You think you'll find a heaven of bliss in each caress and each tender kiss But I forgot more than you'll ever know about her You stole her love from me one day you didn't care how you've hurt me But you can never steal away mem'ries of what used to be You think she's yours to have and to hold But someday you'll learn when her love grows cold That I forgot more than you'll ever know about her You stole her love from me
