Lyrics
(Verse1 - Melody A)
It use to be
That I could walk you on home
It use to be
We'd talk for hours on the phone
But now you've gone and left
It's not easy to forget
What use to be
(Verse2 - Melody A)
It use to be
You were my one and only girl
It use to be
The very center of my world
But that's all in the past
Yeah, these feelings they still last
What use to be
(Verse 3- Melody B)
Oh darling, I'm so alone
Since you left me, left me on my own
Now I'm walking round midnite
Trying to walk away from you
( Verse 4 - Melody C)
Was it just my imagination?
Or was it all wrong from the start?
Just a silly infatuation
Has left this hole in my heart
(Guitar solo - Melody A)
Repeat Verse 4
Repeat Verse 1
What use to be - repeat
