somebody that i used to know (to elliot)

M.Y.T.H

on fall days when the leaves danced in my path
you voice sang in my head
your sad songs made me happy
happy to know you were on my side
i will never forget that cold cold day you died

"somebody that i used to know"

"i had tender feelings that you made hard
but it's your heart, not mine, that's scarred
so when i go home i'll be happy to go
you're just somebody that i used to know
you don't need my help anymore
it's all now to you, there ain't no before
now that you're big enough to run your own show
you're just somebody that i used to know
i watched you deal in a dying day
and throw the living past away
so you can be sure that you're in control
you're just somebody that i used to know
i know you don't think you did me wrong
and i can't stay this way for long
keeping ahold of what you just let go
you're just somebody that i used to know"
