Don't Forget Me Lyrics - Al Stewart

The sun is going down across the great unknown 

Lights come on inside the towers made of stone 

A muffled drum plays out of sight and all alone 

Summer is over 

The city lies awake and breathes electric air 

The sailor in the bar dreams of a love affair 

Young girls seem to shimmer in fluorescent glare 

Summer is over 

It's a never ending show 

Faces come and go 

Like a river 

You're a rainbow wrapped in gray 

Shake the dust away 

Like a river 

But don't forget me 

Don't forget me now 

Oh don't forget me 

Don't forget me now 

It's a never ending show 

Faces come and go 

Like a river 

You're a rainbow wrapped in gray 

Shake the dust away 

Like a river 

The crowd is spilling from the video arcade 

The owner of the restaurant pulls down the shade 

The thunder of the trucks is like a cannonade 

But now it's over 

But don't forget me 

Don't forget me now 

Don't forget me 

Don't forget me now 

Summer is over 

Summer is over 

But don't forget me 

Don't forget me now 

Don't forget me 

Don't forget me now
