Selective Memory lyrics

Artist  : Eels 
Song : Selective Memory
 

if i lay my head down 
i will see you in my dream
wearin that polka dot dress 
and sittin by the stream
leaning in to hear you
you will whisper in my ear
and everything i need to know 
i finally hear

i wish i could remember 
but my selective memory
won`t let me

when i was a baby we would
to out to the park
and sit out in the fountain
and splash around until it`s dark
days go on forever 
when you only know that much
and everything you need to know 
is answered with one touch

i wish i could remember 
but my selective memory
won`t let me
