lirik lagu how quickly – jimmy webb
[verse 1]
am i an actor in a scene *
endlessly repeating my first takes?
or just a fool in a midway sideshow
doomed to repeat my worst mistakes?
[verse 2]
i made a promise to myself
all those lost and lonely years ago
to always hold a little somethin’ back from love
hold it back from love
[chorus]
how quickly
how quickly we forget
all those lessons we have learned
so swiftly
you turn without regret
to the arms of your new lover
how quickly we forget
[verse 3]
i saw the devil in your eyes
but you might have been an angel with the blues
and now the piper’s finished playin’
it’s time to pay the devil his dues
[chorus]
how quickly
how quickly we forget
all those bridges we have burned
and when you told me
you wished we never met
seems like it happened in slow motion
how quickly we forget
[chorus]
how quickly
how quickly we forget
seems like it all goes by so fast
when you’re havin’ a good time
oh, and it slips away
(how quickly we forget)
[outro]
all those little things you do and say (all those little things)
you think they’re gonna last forever (but nothing lasts forever)
and you try to hold on (hold on)
then one day you’re lookin’ back (oh lookin’ back, baby)
oh, and you don’t know where it’s gone
you never knew what happened
and your memories are all you have (memories are all that you have)
as they fade away…
(how quickly we forget)
(how quickly…)
[fade out]
