The sun wouldn't forget them. Just let go - and fall like a little waterfall. If we're gonna walk though the woods, we need a little path. Fluff it up a little and hypnotize it. Don't be afraid to make these big decisions. Once you start, they sort of just make themselves. The only prerequisite is that it makes you happy. If it makes you happy then it's good. Let the paint work. If you hypnotize it, it will go away.
