You Get Used To Somebody

Tim McGraw · Set This Circus Down

I thought I felt you touch my cheek this mornin'

But I must'a been dreamin'

And in the middle of the night with out a warnin'

I thought I heard you breathin'

Me and my so-called independence

I've got this loneliness that's so relentless

Chorus:

I guess you get used to somebody

Kind of like havin' them around

I guess you get used to the way they make you happy

Bring you up when you're feelin' down

I never dreamed when I was letting you go

That I would wake up and miss you this much

I guess you get used to somebody

I guess you get used to bein' loved

I kinda miss those ramblin' conversations

Where we talked about nothin'

The way you always made me laugh at my frustrations

Baby, that was somethin'

I should've been careful what I wished for

Cause I've got my freedom and so much more

Chorus

I never dreamed when I was letting you go

Tthat I would wake up and miss you this much

I guess you get used to somebody

I guess you get used to bein' loved
