Read from start to end and again the fearlessness of thoughts in print
strips the chord of a sensible word and what's worse
she left her mark, indelible the nature of a scripted verse
keeps my eyes set on the page, and it says
frankly dear I'm forced to give it up
tried my hand and now I've had enough
even though we have to say goodbye
keep me in mind
keep me in mind
keep me in mind
blamed in advance for the past with no bearing on a present tense
all that's left are claims that she made when she said
oh dear someday you'll learn to be someone better fit to pursue me
but 'til then we'll call it the end as she adds
frankly dear the drifters had it right
stayed the afternoon and left at night
even though we have to say goodbye
keep me in mind
keep me in mind
keep me in mind
keep me in mind
