We Don't Talk Anymore
Tom Jones · Other Songs - Tom Jones
I used to think it was so complete
I can't believe
You've thrown it away
I used to think we had it made
I used to feel we would sail away
Can you just imagine
How I feel today?
Well, it seems a long time ago
You were the lonely one
Now it comes to letting go
And you're the only one
Do you know what you've done?
It's so funny how we don't talk anymore
It's so funny why we don't talk anymore
But I ain't losing sleep and I ain't counting sheep
It's so funny how we don't talk anymore
It really doesn't matter to me
I guess your leaving was meant to be
It's down to you now
You wanna be free
Well, I hope you know which way to go
You're on your own again
Don't come running to me
When you're the lonely one
Remember what you've done
It's so funny how we don't talk anymore
It's so funny why we don't talk anymore
It's so funny how we don't talk anymore
