lyrics

sometimes i forget
to call my friends
sometimes i forget

sometimes i forget
to cross at the bridge
sometimes i get wet

sometimes i get wet
the river is deep
sometimes i just want to sleep

but i will text you
late at night
just to let you know
that i'm thinking of you

i will call you
if you wanna talk and
i will listen
for as long as you want

sometimes i forget
to take care of myself
sometimes i forget

sometimes i forget
to take my pills
sometimes i get sick

sometimes i get sick
and lose my will
sometimes i just want to lay still

i will pick you up
from the airport
and I'll catch you
as soon as you land

i will feed you
if you need to eat and
i will make the bed
so you can get some sleep

i am learning to be a good friend
but sometimes i forget

sometimes i forget
to catch my breath
sometimes i forget

sometimes i forget
to come up for air
sometimes i don’t care

sometimes i don’t care
if i drown
sometimes i can’t make a sound

i will call you
from the hospital
say i'm sorry
for everything

please come get me
i won’t argue
and i promise
i want to get well

please come get me
i want to get well
