Timbuktu (Like I Used To) Lyrics by The New Violence

2023

[Intro]
(I love you like I used to)
(I still love you like I used to)
[Verse 1]
You fell asleep with all the lights on
Nights like these always drag on and on and on and on and on
If I would've tried, if I didn't lie
Maybe I'd have you by my side
It's so easy to forget what you have until it dies
[Pre-Chorus]
We would get lost inside each other
We were just kids turned into lovers
Been missing you lately, give me something more to lose
[Chorus]
I wanna break throu-ou-ough
Wanna say I love you like I used to-o
Think of you with evеry single thing I do
From California, all the way to Timbuktu
I still love you likе I used to-o
Love you like I used to-o
I still love you like I used to
Love you like I used to
[Verse 2]
Staying awake to watch the sunrise
It's such a shame I never saw the way it echoes in your eyes
I lost track of time, I never said goodbye
But, all we had wasn't ready to die
It's so hard letting go when you're always on my mind
[Pre-Chorus]
We would get lost inside each other
We were just kids turned into lovers
Been missing you lately, give me something more to lose
[Chorus]
I wanna break throu-ou-ough
Wanna say I love you like I used to-o
Think of you with every single thing I do
From California, all the way to Timbuktu
I still love you like I used to-o
I'm still holding onto you-ou-ou
I can't let you go, you're all that I know
You live in everything I do
I still love you like I used to!
[Outro]
I still love you like I used to
Love you like I used to
(I still love you like I used to)
