Sixpence None The Richer - We Have Forgotten Lyrics






Dreams, inconsistent angel things.
Horses bred with star-laced wings.
But it's so hard to make them fly, fly, fly.
These wings beat the night sky 'bove the town.
One goes up and one goes down.
And so the chariot hits the ground, bound, bound.

We have forgotten (don't try to make me fly)
How it used to be (I'll stay here, I'll be fine).
How it used to be (don't go and let me down)
How it used to be (I'm starting to like this town).

When wings beat the night sky 'bove the ground,
Will I unwillingly shoot them down
With all my petty fears and doubts, down, down?

We have forgotten (am I in love with this?)
How it used to be (my constant broken ship)
How it used to be (don't go, I'll shoot you down),
How it used to be (I'm starting to like this town).

  16. a.... D....

    bellissima canzone

  17. D.... ....

    this song is by far my favorite on the album. so many y bitter sweet memories replay in my mind when this song plays

  18. F.... P....

    is there anyone here's what this song tells about....?

    F.... P....

    +Fireflies Pictures Lots and lots. 80,917 at this point, apparently lol, but a lot more around in other channels

    F.... P....

    It's about being afraid to follow your dreams and deciding upon settling with where you are, even if that place wasn't even part of your plans. Settling, looking back, yearning for the past and not allowing the present and potential future, in which you're trying to trust in your hopes and dreams, take you on a journey.

    F.... P....

    The first 3 songs on this album are all a metaphorical re-telling of Sixpence's struggles with the record industry. They had had numerous record company disputes. It's about the conflict between artists and executives, between being creative and needing to make money. "I'm starting to like this town" is a reference to Nashville.

    F.... P....

    Victorian ladies falling in love falling out of love growing young growing old....

  19. s.... a....

    That girl is so beautiful I wish I could have her for myself she reminds me of my girlfriend Dina she is so pretty definitely God's angel

  20. a.... h....

    i remember this song while we were travelling town to town inside my dad's car.. hays... i miss the old days..

  21. J.... A....

    We have forgotten...... :) I can this song...

  22. D.... C....

    Why do I feel so sad to hear this song and seeing the image of the CD?

    D.... C....

    +Doughboy Cowboy Interesting you noticed that, it is a great visual for the song. I imagine this is about a struggle to accept death, and trying to reason with it. I could be way off, but I would be interested to hear someone else's interpretation.

    D.... C....

    +Carrie Jones Well, the voice of the vocalist as giving me a kind of happiness followed by sadness, it is very rare. The sound of the instruments give me the same sensations such and the end is that painting on the cover of the CD that makes me very nostalgic.
    Have you ever felt that something makes you sad and happy at the same time and do not know exactly why? That happens to me now.

    And not just in this song, I think all the songs from this album I feel the same way.

    What do you think?

    D.... C....

    +Carrie Jones I'm usually pretty good at interpreting lyrics. I haven't looked at these. I wonder where I can see them, I have the cd but don't have the case.

    D.... C....

    this sadness makes me happy

  23. S.... K....

    i would kill to have this CD back

    S.... K....
