Song Description
Don't Forget About Us is a tender send-off wrapped in hope and restraint; a song about loving someone enough to let them chase their dreams, even when it hurts. Told from the quiet side of goodbye, it captures the mix of pride, fear, and devotion that comes with distance. It's not about holding someone back; it's about holding on.

Lyrics
(Verse 1)
The sun is setting on our little town,
As you pack your bags, I can't help but frown,
You're chasing dreams, reaching for the sky,
But here I stand, wishing you and I could fly.
(Chorus)
Don't forget about us, don't let memories fade,
In the rise of your stars, I'll still be your serenade,
I'll be cheering you on, even when it's hard,
Just promise me this: we won't drift too far.
(Verse 2)
Your smile lights the room every time you walk in,
As you close that door, I wonder where to begin,
You're going places, making your mark,
But baby, it's hard when we're worlds apart.
(Chorus)
Don't forget about us, don't let memories fade,
In the rise of your stars, I'll still be your serenade,
I'll be cheering you on, even when it's hard,
Just promise me this: we won't drift too far.
(Bridge)
Though miles may grow between your heart and mine,
My love won't fade with distance or time,
Through every sunrise, through every tear,
I'll hold on tight, wishing you were here.
(Verse 3)
So take that leap, spread your wings and fly,
And know in my heart, I'll always be your why,
The road may be long, the journey rough,
But love will hold us when it gets tough.
(Chorus)
Don't forget about us, don't let memories fade,
In the rise of your stars, I'll still be your serenade,
I'll be cheering you on, even when it's hard,
Just promise me this: we won't drift too far.
(Outro)
As you drive away, I'll wave goodbye,
With a smile and a tear, I'll trust in the sky,
You're chasing that dream, and I'm proud of you,
Just don't forget about us;
(Spoken)
Just know it's true.
