Tame Impala - List of People (To Try and Forget About) lyrics

Now I gotta add you to my list
Of people to try and forget about
Now I gotta add yours to my list of
Faces to try and not think about
Now I gotta tell 'em I don't care and
Hope that nobody might work it out
It was obviously an illusion
'cause there's never
Been so much I've been wrong about
And I don't want to spend all my days
Thinking of the one I can't live without
So I'm gonna have to add you to my
List of people to try and forget about
To try and for-

And as the years go by
Your name will fade out gradually
They'll think my heart went dry
But it was waiting in-

So now I gotta add you to my list
Of people to try and forget about
It could've been magic, nearly had ya
Can you imagine? Nearly had ya
'Til it becomes another one of the things
That I just can't talk about
I'm gonna have to keep you on my list
Of people to try and forget about
Try and for-

And as the years go by
Your name will fade out gradually
They'll think my heart went dry
But it was waiting in the wings
And as the years go by
You'll stay a banished memory
They'll say my love has died
But it was waiting in the wings
