Keep Forgettin'

Memory likes to play tricks, especially when it comes to the past. Your head seems to understand everything: the final curtain has fallen, the credits have rolled, there will be no sequel. But your heart keeps playing the same old record over and over again, repeating the same verse about what might have been.

There is something in this song about awkward encounters in the supermarket: polite smiles, a quick ‘hello’ - and a storm inside. It's as if reality has long since put everything in its place, but somewhere deep down there is a stubborn inner voice: ‘What if...?’

The sadness here is not grandiose, but quiet and homely. With a hint of irony about one's own forgetfulness and the aching honesty of the confession: yes, sometimes feelings are much more stubborn than logic.
