Lyrics for We Used to Know

Now and then I think of when we were together Like when you said you felt so happy you could die I told myself that you were right for me But felt so lonely in your company But that was love and it's an ache I still remember But you didn't have to cut me off Make it like it never happened and that we were nothing I don't even need your love, but you treat me like a stranger And that feels so rough No, you didn't have to stoop so low Have your friends collect your records And then change your number Guess that I don't need that though Now you're just somebody that I used to know Now you're just somebody that I used to know Now you're just somebody that I used to know Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over But had me believin' it was always something that I'd done But I don't wanna live that way Reading into every word you say You said that you could let it go And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know But you didn't have cut me off Make it like it never happened and that we were nothing I don't even need your love, but you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough No, you didn't have to stoop so low Have your friends collect you records And then change your number Guess that I don't need that though Now you're just somebody that I used to know Somebody that I used to know Somebody that I used to know Somebody that I used to know Somebody that I used to know (now you're just somebody that i used to know)
