List Of People (to Try And Forget About) Lyrics - Tame Impala

[Verse 1] 

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 

Try and for- 

[Chorus] 

And as the years go by 

Your name will fade out gradually 

Don't think my heart will try 

But it was waiting here

[Verse 2] 

So now I gotta add you to my list of people to try and forget about 

It could've been magic 

Nearly had ya 

Could 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-

[Chorus] 

And as the years go by 

Your name will fade out gradually 

They'll think my heart won't try 

But it was waiting in the wings 

And as the years go by 

You're still a banished memory 

They'll say my love has died 

But it was waiting in the wings
