About I Keep Forgettin' (Every Time You're Near)

This song, though an excellent piece by itself, is most famous for being sampled in Warren G and Nate Dogg’s “Regulate”. This song, possibly Michael McDonald’s most famous as a solo artist, is about the thoughts and pain that run through his mind, as he tries to come to terms with the fact that a person he loved has decided to break it off for good; this, is proving difficult for him. This song is really unique, in the sense that it has a soul/jazz sound, and funk sound at the same time (which works together harmoniously). .

I Keep Forgettin' (Every Time You're Near) Lyrics

[00:21.02] I keep forgettin' we're not in love anymore
[00:25.75] I keep forgettin' things will never be the same again
[00:30.85] I keep forgettin' how you made that so clear
[00:35.78] I keep forgettin' it all
[00:39.28] Every time you're near
[00:42.87] Every time I see your smile
[00:48.78] Hear your hello
[00:52.26] Saying you can only stay a while
[00:59.43] Hey, I know that it's hard for you
[01:04.12] To say the things
[01:06.55] We both know are true
[01:09.45] But tell me how come
[01:10.98] I keep forgettin' we're not in love anymore
[01:15.86] I keep forgettin' things will never be the same again
[01:21.49] I keep forgettin' how you made that so clear
[01:26.32] I keep forgettin', babe
[01:29.39] Every time I hear
[01:32.53] How you never want to live a lie
[01:38.78] How it's gone too far
[01:43.25] And you don't have to tell me why
[01:49.63] Why you're gone and why the game is through
[01:54.78] If this is what's real
[01:57.07] If this is what's true
[01:59.85] Tell me how come
[02:01.97] I keep forgettin' we're not in love anymore
[02:06.46] I keep forgettin' things will never be the same again
[02:11.95] I keep forgettin' how you made that so clear
[02:17.17] I keep forgettin'
[02:22.03] Don't say that, don't say that, don't say that
[02:28.29] I know you're not mine anymore, anyway, anytime
[02:36.54] Tell me how come
[02:38.65] I keep forgettin' we're not in love anymore
[02:43.34] I keep forgettin' things will never be the same again
[02:48.48] I keep forgettin' how you made that so clear
[02:53.63] I keep forgettin', baby
[02:58.52] I keep forgettin' we're not in love anymore
[03:03.65] I keep forgettin' things will never be the same again
[03:08.70] I keep forgettin' how you made that so clear
[03:13.69] I keep forgettin'
[03:19.87]
