[Verse 1]
Shattered dreams
Cut through my mind
Tragically our love has died
Memories confine my head
Bitterly I face the end

[Pre-Chorus]
Trustingly, I gave my self to you
I let you inside
Believing your lies

[Chorus]
And you don't remember
Every time you told me
You were mine forever
For eternity
And you don't remember
How you used to hold me
How we'd melt together
How you needed me
How we used to be in love

[Verse 2]
Stranded here
In nothingness
With only tears
And loneliness

[Pre-Chorus]
Foolishly, I gave my soul to you
I let you inside
Believing your lies

[Chorus]
And you don't remember
(And you don't remember)
Every time you told me
(Every time you told me)
You were mine forever
For eternity
And you don't remember
(And you don't remember)
How you used to hold me
(How you used to hold me)
How we'd melt together
How you needed me
How we used to be

[Bridge]
Helplessly, I fell so deep
I was so naive to let you in
Why did I let you in
To my heart

[Chorus]
And you don't remember
(Every time you told me)
Anything that you told me
You were mine forever
For eternity
Yes, you will
I know you don't remember
(I know you don't remember)
How you used to hold me
(How you used to hold me)
How we'd melt together, together
How you needed me
How we used to be in love

Mariah Carey

Mariah Carey (born March 27, 1970) is an American singer, songwriter, record producer, actress, and philanthropist.

Under the guidance of Columbia Records executive Tommy Mottola, Carey released her self-titled debut studio album Mariah Carey in 1990; it went multi-platinum and spawned four consecutive number one singles on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Following her marriage to Mottola in 1993 and success with hit records “Emotions” (1991), “Music Box” (1993), and “Merry Christmas” (1994), Carey was established as Columbia’s highest-selling act. Daydream (1995) made music history when its second single “One Sweet Day”, a duet with Boyz II Men, spent a record sixteen weeks on top of the Billboard Hot 100, and remains the longest-running number-one song in U.S. chart history, along with Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee’s “Despacito.” During the recording of the album, Carey began to deviate from her R&B and pop beginnings and slowly traversed into hip hop. This musical change became evident with the release of Butterfly (1997), at which time Carey had separated from Mottola.
