[English]

We don't talk anymore

We don't talk anymore

We don't talk anymore

Like we used to do

We don't love anymore

What was all of it for?

Oh, we don't talk anymore

Like we used to do

I just heard you found the one you've been looking

You've been looking for

I wish I would have known that wasn't me

'Cause even after all this time I still wonder

Why I can't move on

Just the way you did so easily?

Don't wanna know

What kind of dress you're wearing tonight

If he's holding onto you so tight

The way I did before

I overdosed

Should've known your love was a game

Now I can't get you out of my brain

Oh, it's such a shame

(we don't talk anymore)

We don't talk anymore

We don't talk anymore

Like we used to do

We don't love anymore

What was all of it for?

Oh, we don't talk anymore

Like we used to do

I just hope you're lying next to somebody

Who knows how to love you like me

There must be a good reason that you're gone

Every now and then I think you

Might want me to come show up at your door

But I'm just too afraid that I'll be wrong

Don't wanna know

If you're looking into her eyes

If she's holding onto you so tight

The way I did before

I overdosed

Should've known your love was a game

Now I can't get you out of my brain

Ooh, it's such a shame

That we don't talk anymore (we don't, we don't)

We don't talk anymore (we don't, we don't)

We don't talk anymore

Like we used to do

We don't love anymore (we don't, we don't)

What was all of it for? (We don't, we don't)

Oh, we don't talk anymore

Like we used to do

Don't wanna know

What kind of dress you're wearing tonight

If he's giving it to you just right

The way I did before

I overdosed

Should've known your love was a game

Now I can't get you out of my brain

Oh, it's such a shame

That we don't talk anymore (we don't, we don't)

We don't talk anymore (we don't, we don't)

We don't talk anymore

Like we used to do

We don't love anymore (we don't, we don't)

What was all of it for? (we don't, we don't)

Oh, we don't talk anymore

Like we used to do
