Jermaine Elliott - Used 2 Be

Copied!

{verse 1}
I miss you but i can't tell you
I'm with somebody else new and i know you know
When you walked away you know i felt it
Sometimes the greatest things in life you gotta let em go
It was fun while it lasted
I can still hear your voice when you call
Where did you go
Trusted you, faith in you, believed in you
But i know this ain't what it used to be, no
Trusted you, faith in you, believed in you
But i know this ain't what it used to be, no

{chorus}
Used to be, no
Used to, used to be

{verse 2}
If i can't have it all i don't want it
I ignore the signs i've seen it coming
Time and time again, where do we begin
Where do we go from here
It was fun while it lasted
I can still hear your voice when you call
Are you for real when you say that you're done
Cause i know
I'm still on your mind
I'm still on your mind
I know that they say things get better
If you give it time
But i'm done waiting for you
Do you see my love
It's time to let it go
Enough is enough

{bridge}
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah
Cause i know this ain't what it used to be, no
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah
Cause i know this ain't what it used to be, no

{chorus}
Used to be, no
Used to, used to be
Used to be, no
Used to, used to be
Used to be, no
Used to, used to be
Used to, used to be
Used to, used to be

{outro}
I miss you but i can't tell you
I'm with somebody else new and i know you know
When you walked away you know how i felt it
Sometimes the greatest things in life you gotta let them go
It was fun while it lasted
Still hear your voice when you call
Where did you go
