Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You laughed at the wrong parts
Spilled coffee on my coat
Said
"Guess you’re stuck with me now"
Half a joke
Half a note
We walked past the station
Missed trains just to talk
Kicked leaves on the pavement
Turned minutes into long walks
[Chorus]
Now you’re a girl I used to know
In a picture from some summer long ago
He’s holding you the way I planned to
I’m smiling but my chest still aches for you
You’re a girl I used to know
But I’m still learning how to let you go
[Verse 2]
I heard you moved across town
Got a ring and a spare key
You’re learning how he takes his coffee
You used to learn that with me
I drive by your old street
Lights on
But it’s not you
Strange how a small
Quiet house
Holds more than I can get through
[Chorus]
Now you’re a girl I used to know
In a picture from some summer long ago
He’s holding you the way I planned to
I’m smiling but my chest still aches for you
You’re a girl I used to know
But I’m still learning how to let you go
[Bridge]
Was I a lesson?
Were you my home?
I had your number
Not your timing
Though
If I’d just told you
What you meant back then
Would I be the stranger
Or would I be him?
[Chorus]
Now you’re a girl I used to know
Your name still tastes like coming in from cold
He’s holding you the way I ran late to
He showed up when I only wished to
You’re a girl I used to know
And I’m still learning how to let you go (let you go)

Warm acoustic ballad with male vocals, close-mic’d guitar and soft brushy percussion; verses intimate and conversational, chorus opens with airy pads and stacked harmonies. Gentle bass underpins the hook, subtle piano doubles key phrases in the chorus, bridge strips back to just vocal and guitar before a final, fuller chorus lift.
