Lyrics
AND I USED TO KNOW HER FACE
AND I USED TO KNOW HER NAME
AND WE USED TO HAVE A PLACE
WERE WE USED TO KEEP THE FLAME
I GOT REASONS
I GOT TALES TO TELL
I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF BEING ALONE AGAIN
GOD KNOWS IV'E SURE SEEN A LOT OF THINGS
NOTHING COMPARES TO THE LINE SHE COULD BRING TO ME
AND I USED TO KNOW HER FACE
AND I USED TO KNOW HER NAME
AND I KNOW THAT I COULD GO THROUGH THAT AGAIN
I'VE MADE MY MIND UP A THOUSAND TIMES A DAY
PRACTICE PERFECT AND I KNOW WHAT I MUST SAY
I GOT NO REASON I GOT NO THING TO LOSE
CAN'T GET ENOUGH LOVE THAT I CAN USE
AND I USED TO KNOW HER FACE
AND I USED TO KNOW HER NAME
AND I KNOW THAT I COULD GO THROUGH THAT AGAIN
AND I USED TO KNOW HER FACE
AND I USED TO KNOW HER NAME
AND WE USED TO HAVE A PLACE
WERE WE USED TO KEEP THE FLAME
AND I USED TO KNOW HER FACE
AND I USED TO KNOW HER NAME
AND I KNOW THAT I COULD GO THROUGH THAT AGAIN
WELL I USED TO TOUCH HER FACE
AND I USED TO CALL HER NAME
AND I KNOW THAT I COULD GO THROUGH THAT AGAIN
