A Girl I Used to Know Lyrics

There's a picture that I carry one we made some time ago
If they ask who's in the picture with me I say just a girl I used to know
Just a girl I used to go around with just a friend from long ago
I don't tell them how lost I am without her I say she's just a girl I used to know

I say she's just another girl now just a flame that's lost its glow
And I say her name has slipped my mind now and she's just a girl I used to know
Just a girl I used to spend some time with just a friend from long ago
I don't talk about the nights I cried about her I say she's just a girl I used to know
Just a girl I used to know

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
