Artist/Band: Dolly Parton
Lyrics for Song: Just Someone I Used to Know
Lyrics for Album: Best Of The Best: Hall Of Fame 2000 [2002]



(Jack Clement)



There's a picture that I carry

One we made some time ago

When they ask who's in the picture with me

I say just someone I used to know.



Just someone I used to spend some time with

Just a flame that's lost its glow

But I don't tell them of the nights I cried without you

I say just someone I used to know.



Just someone I used to run around with

Just a friend from long ago

I don't tell them how lost I am without you

I say just someone I used to know.



I say just someone I used to know...
