Forgotten, But Not Gone - Gary Allan

Her birthday came and went without a card, or a single I love you

On their anniversary she sat all alone at a table set for two

She tries her best to please him, but she never hears one single word of praise

She feels just like a stranger, in a home where love has seen its better days

Well he’s taken her for granted

God only knows why she keeps hanging on

Because it’s better to be gone, but not forgotten

Than to be forgotten, but not gone

Somehow he can’t remember, when he’s late to even take the time to call

And even on the nights he’s there she gets the feeling he’s not there at all

She’s become a prisoner in that big old house where sweet love used to be

Well, it’s not even over but Lord she feels just like a memory
