| By jerry leiber/mike stoller/michael mcdonald/ed sanford | |
| Chorus： | |
| I keep forgettin' we're not in love anymore | |
| I keep forgettin' things will never be the same again | |
| I keep forgettin' how you made that so clear | |
| I keep forgettin' | |
| Everytime you're near | |
| Everytime i see you smile | |
| Hear your "hello" | |
| Saying you can only stay a while | |
| Hey, i know that it's hard for you | |
| To say the things that we both know are true | |
| But tell me how come (i) | |
| Chorus: | |
| Everytime i hear | |
| How you never want to live a lie | |
| How it's gone to far | |
| And you don't have to tell me why | |
| Why you're gone and the game is through | |
| If this is what's real, if this is what's true | |
| Tell me how come (i) | |
| Chorus: | |
| Don't say that, don't say that, don't say that | |
| I know you're not mine anymore-anyway-anytime | |
| But tell me how come (i) | |
