I want the procedure done right away
Erase her from my thoughts, eradicate each memory
I used to believe that you would save me
But as I'm drifting off to sleep,
I know that you'll be gone by morning
We laid out on the ice and I'm just exactly
Where I want to be, I've never felt that
Your impulse to throw me out has caused
Both our minds to drown in a sea of dying memories
We trace our footsteps back and put our time here to rest
But I can't remember anything without you
So when I wake, there will be nothing left
How could I have suppressed the memory
Of the day we first met?
Please let me keep this one
I want to call it off, can somebody
Wake me up? I don't want this anymore
We laid out on the ice and I'm just exactly
Where I want to be, I've never felt that
We trace our footsteps back and put our time here to rest
But I can't remember anything without you
So when I wake, there will be nothing left
I'm holding on to your love but they won't stop 'til it's dead
You and I both know soon it will be over
So we cherish all that we have left
Clementine, I tried to rip you from my mind
Each prayer accepted, each wish resigned
Clementine, I tried to rip you from my mind
Each prayer accepted, each wish resigned
(How happy is the blameless vestal's lot
The world forgetting by the world forgot
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind
Each prayer accepted, each wish resigned)
We trace our footsteps back and put our time here to rest
But I can't remember anything without you
So when I wake, there will be nothing left
I'm holding on to your love but they won't stop 'til it's dead
You and I both know soon it will be over
So we cherish all that we have left
I'll find you when I wake and we'll try again
I'll meet you in montauk my dear old friend
