lyrics

I’m trying to tell you what I mean to say, now.
I’m trying to tell you this.
I can’t remember what I’m trying to think of.
I’m trying to think of this.

I just told you…
Remind me to tell you what I’m going to tell you soon.
Can you remember what we were talking about
When we talked about this before –
When I was telling you?
I want to hear that song we were listening to.
You know that song? It’s my favorite song, I guess.
I want to hear that song that I like the best.

I’m trying to tell you what I mean to say, now.
I’m trying to tell you this.
I can’t remember what I’m trying to think of.
I’m trying to think of this.

Remember that time at that restaurant when we ate some food
And it tasted like a flavor that we tasted once before?
The time when we asked the way from someone who
Had already been to that place before we even headed out the door?

There was that time,
Yeah, that time.
Then there was that guy,
Yeah, that guy.
There was that thing,
Yeah, that thing that I meant to say.

I just told you…
I’m trying to find that thing that I’m looking for.
You know, that thing that reminded me of that other thing
When we were at the store –
I need to find that thing that I’m looking for.

I’m trying to tell you what I mean to say, now.
I’m trying to tell you this.
I can’t remember what I’m trying to think of.
I’m trying to think of this.
