英文乡村歌曲：Eli Young Band - How Quickly You Forget

Eternal¹ flame came on the radio

And I remember how you loved it so

Memories sneak² on me, wherever I go

A car like you used to drive

Pulled beside me today at the light

Chances to break down and cry wherever I go

And you want me to be strong, any less just shows I'm weak

How'd ya turn so cold, where's the girl I used to know

Chorus³:

And it's love and hate and all these emotions

I never thought that you'd be going

Now I'm just going through the motions⁴

Where everything is you, everything is you

An inside joke comes to mind

We'd wear them out all the time

Memories sneak up on me wherever I go

And it seems you've disappeared, though you're not that far away

Please tell me it's not true, I didn't mean that much to you

And it's love and hate and all these emotions

I never thought that you'd be going

Now I'm just going through the motions

Where everything is you, everything is you

What did I do wrong, nothing I treated you like an angel⁵

What'd I do wrong, nothin I treated you like an angel

What'd I do wrong, nothin I treated you like an angel

I treated you like an angel

And it's love and hate and all these emotions

I never thought that you'd be going

Now I'm just going through the motions

Where everything is you, everything is you

I treated you like an angel...
