[Lyric] Ill Never Forget You Live at Joes Pub (Francis and the Lights)

[Verse 1]
Eighty-Six Charlie came over
He asked me for a favor
Asked me a question
Asked me to make an exception (Ooh, ooh, ooh)

[Verse 2]
Eighty-Six Charlie, came back
Said he'd been thinking it over
Said he's had a change of heart
He thinks he's made a grave mistake

[Chorus]
But I, I'll never forget you
I'll never forget you
You make things so easy
I'll never forget you

[Verse 3]
Eighty-Six Charlie, he came back, he came back
Sat down at thе table, and for the last time
Said hе's finally made up his mind
He wonders if it's not too late
It's not too late because
[Chorus]
I'll never forget you
I'll never forget you
You made me so angry
I'll never forget you

[Outro]
A lot of people ask me what that song is about
And, uh, that song is not about anything in particular
But it was inspired by a very specific feeling, and moment and thing
And that is a friend asking their close friend to borrow money
Asking their close, close friend to borrow money
I find that to be a uniquely tragic feeling
It's told from the perspective of the person who's being asked
