And it won’t take long to forget you Time it passes fast It’ll all be over in a minute You’ll be in the past You can lose the love of a lifetime In a single roll You can gain a fortune in an instant Or you can lose your soul. And it won’t take long to forget you But it’s hard to forget ‘Cause it seems like it’s yesterday The day that we first met. When you gave me a smoldering look And you put out your cigarette When I saw you come sauntering over You were a pale blue dress. Life is short One look on it’s over It comes as quite a shock All I’ve got is some memories Stuck in an old shoe box And it won’t take long to forget you You know I am never wrong It’ll all be over by Christmas And it won’t take long And it won’t take long And it won’t take long And it won’t take long And it won’t take long And it won’t take long to forget you You know I am never wrong It’ll all be over in a minute And it won’t take long And it won’t take long And it won’t take long And it won’t take long And it won’t take long
