John Akers - Touched (Do You Still Want Me to Forget You?) Lyrics

When they let me out this time
I didn't know where else to go
So I kept watch at your house
I paid off everyone you know
And they told me all about
Your doctor's house calls twice a week
And I wondered if he charged you
For the ringprints he left on your cheek

Do you still want me to forget you?
Cause if you change your mind at all
I could remember every detail
Do you still want me to forget you?
Cause if you do, I won't recall a single thing

No, she never liked my tortured artists
Who couldn't stand the world
She threw out all my Concrete Blonde tapes
Hated my Steve Earle
But she convinced me late one night
To KooKoo Boy's"Vampire Girls"
Well they let me out this time
Cause I convinced them I was well
I said the things they wanna hear
So they could congratulate themselves
On unlocking all the secrets
I'd kept hidden all these years
But when you came up
I couldn't stop my laughter to explain my tears

Do you still want me to forget you?
Cause if you change your mind at all
I could remember every detail
Do you still want me to forget you?

Cause if you do, I'll dump your pictures
In my box of things to sell
With my lava lamps, decoder rings
And lies I like to tell
That I had learned from all those books I burned
Back in my hotel

Do you still want me to forget you?
Cause if you change your mind at all
Do you still want me to forget you?
Cause if you don't, I won't recall a single thing
If you don't, I won't recall a single thing
