We don't talk anymore

We don't talk anymore

We don't talk anymore [Written by Selena Gomez]

Like we used to do

We don't love anymore

What was all of it for? Ohhh... [Written by Jacob Kasher Hindlin]

We don't talk anymore

Like we used to do [Directed by Kwang Yoon Soo]

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 Kind of dress you're wearing tonight

If he's holdin' 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 (Know)

If you're looking into her eyes (Her eyes)

If she's holdin' onto you so tight (So tight)

The way I did before (Way I did before)

I overdosed

Should've known your love was a game (A game)

Now I can't get you out of my brain (My brain)

Oh, it's such a shame

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? Ohhh (we don't we don't)

We don't talk anymore Like we used to do

[MUSIC]

Like we used to do

[MUSIC]

Don't wanna know 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 (Oh, it's such a shame)

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? Ohhh (we don't we don't)

We don't talk anymore Like we used to do

Ohhhhh! Ohhhh!

The way I did before

We don't talk anymore
