Unforgettable
Godsmack Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴(Whoa) it's unforgettable
(Whoa)

Another change is coming
A separation from defiant
(To self-reliant baby)
I feel the weather breaking
It's turning rain into fire

(To make it higher baby)

With blind eyes open wide
I'm seeing it

I feel a rise inside me
It's untouchable (whoa)
Like breathing fire in me
(Whoa) it's unforgettable

My river's overflowing
Into an endless sea of changes
(And rearranges baby)
I wanna break it open
I'm gonna take it to define it
(And realign it baby)

With blind eyes open wide
I'm seeing it
A lifeless life never comes alive
(I'm waiting)

I feel a rise inside me
It's untouchable (whoa)
Like breathing fire in me
(Whoa) it's unforgettable

I feel a rise inside me
It's untouchable (whoa)
I'm feeling higher
It's unforgettable

I'm getting higher (higher, higher)
I'm coming alive, I'm coming alive
I'm feeling higher (higher, higher)
I'm coming alive, I'm coming alive

I feel a rise inside me
It's untouchable (whoa)
Like breathing fire in me
(Whoa) it's unforgettable

I feel a rise inside me
It's untouchable (whoa)
I'm feeling higher
It's unforgettable

(Whoa) it's unforgettable
(Whoa) it's unforgettable
