Scott Wittman - Don't Forget Me lyrics

[Verse 1: Katharine McPhee as Marilyn Monroe] They thought they could dispose of me They tried to make me small I suffered each indignity But now rise above it all Yes, the price I paid was all I had But at last, I found release And if something good can come from bad The past can rest in peace [Chorus: Katharine McPhee] Oh if you see someone's hurt And in need of a hand Don't forget me Or hear a melody crying from some baby grand You don't forget me When you sing happy birthday to someone you love Or see diamonds you wish were all free Please say that you won't; I pray that you don't forget me [Verse 2: Katharine McPhee] But forget every man who I ever met 'Cause they only lived to control For a kiss they paid a thousand Yet they paid fifty cents for my soul They took their piece The price of fame that no one can repay Ah, but they didn't buy me when they bought my name And that is why I pray [Chorus: Katharine McPhee] That when you see someone's hurt And in need of a hand You don't forget me Or hear a melody crying from some baby grand You don't forget me When you sing happy birthday to someone you love Or see diamonds you wish were all free Please say that you won't; I pray that you don't forget me [Bridge: Katharine McPhee] There are some in this world who have strength on their own Never broken or in need of repair But there are some born to shine who can't do it alone So protect them and take special care Take care And don't forget me Please take care And don't forget me [Verse 3: Katharine McPhee] When you look to the heavens with someone you love And a light shining bright from afar Hope you see my face there And then offer a prayer And please let me be Let me be that star
