"Used To Know" lyrics

"Used To Know"

I saw you in the distance
So lovely and far away
I wondered where you came from
You waved your hand, you called my name

And time was running backwards
Towards something I can't believe
I started running after
I saw a ghost, he looked the same as me

If I ever give back what you gave me
Take it and run away as far as you can go
If I ever come back from the graveyard
Tell me I remind you of someone you used to know

You seem sullen and far away
I can't endure the waiting
My mind will fade, my heart will break

And time is running backwards
Towards something I can't define
I'm looking for an answer
Go easy, girl, your heart will break like mine

If I ever give back what you gave me
Take it and run away as far as you can go
If I ever come back from the graveyard
Tell me I remind you of someone you used to know

Grab your cigarettes, get a move on, we gotta go
Before they turn the lights down low
Dark silhouettes of a future you tried to forget
Everything you told me

If I ever give back what you gave me
Take it and run away as far as you can go
If I ever come back from the graveyard
Tell me I remind you of someone you used to know

If I ever give back what you gave me
Take it and run away as far as you can go
If I ever come back from the graveyard
Tell me I remind you of someone you used to know
