I can honestly say you've been on my mind
Since I woke up today, up today
I look at your photograph all the time
These memories come back to life
And I don't mind

I remember when we kissed
I still feel it in my lips
The time that you danced with me
With no music playing
I remember the simple things
I remember til I cry
But the one thing I wish I'd forget
The memory I wanna forget
Is goodbye

I woke up this morning
And played our song
And through my tears, I sang along
I picked up the phone and then put it down
Cause I know I'm wasting my time
And I don't mind

I remember when we kissed
I still feel it on my lips
The time that you danced with me
With no music playing
I remember those simple things
I remember til I cry
But the one thing I wish I'd forget
The memory I wanna forget

Suddenly my cell phone's blowing up
With your ring tone
I hesitate but answer it anyway
You sound so alone
And I'm surprised to hear you say

You remember when we kissed
You still feel it on your lips
The time that you danced with me
With no music playing
You remember those simple things
We talked til we cried
You said that your biggest regret
The one thing you wish I'd forget
Is saying goodbye
Saying goodbye oh, goodbye

    General Comment:This song is beautiful. It talks for itself and tells a beautiful story. A story I wish I was about to be able to relate directly to. Damn, I miss him!

    My Opinion:I'm not a huge fan of her music, probably because I'm not a 14 year girl. But I heard this today and couldn't believe I heard a MC song I liked and could relate to.

    But I'm sure we all can relate to some point.

    Not bad.

    General Comment:Im not a huge Miley Cyrus fan, but I love this song cause I relate to it so much. This is how it realtes to me-
    Me and my broke up, and it has been about a month since we have been apart. He had a new gf, and we never spoke anymore. On a Friday, I saw him and he was about to go and talk to me but his gf came over and started talking to him. So I looked away and then I looked back a few minutes later and I saw him and his gf kissing. I looked really sad but Im pretty sure he didnt notice and went home. The next day I got a call from him saying that he missed me and wanted us to be together. He told me he is going to break up with his current gf too. I said yes but until he breaks up with her. We dated about 8 months after that :)

    Song Meaning:This song is beautiful. And you know it dont have to be about breakups. It could also be about a long distance relationship..

    I think about it as this couple just saw each other in person for the first time they danced,kissed,had great memories. And the boy had to leave and on his way home this girl was upset and thinking about it and wish he hadnt said goodbye and wish he would of stayed. And then the guy calls her and tells her he wishes she would forget the goodbye and think that hes still there with her.

    I love you babe xx
