Well Tommy met Krista at the age of nineteen
The prettiest girl that he'd ever seen
And there was not alot of waiting, they started dating
They used to hang out at the coffee shop there
And the weather was nice and the stakes were quite high
And one day Tommy made Krista cry
A little mixup, screwup, started a fight and Krista
went and said goodbye
She used to be in love with me
And now she's gone and taken all the love away
She used to be in love with me
And now I'm just a memory
She used to be in love with me
And now she's gone and taken all the love away
She used to be in love with me
And now I'm just a memory
Well couple years on, he was out with his friends
When Tommy walked into a room and saw Krista again
Crazy thing was it was all still there
Tommy said "Hey you want to drive somewhere?"
They drove to the city where the lights shine low
And Tommy had a feeling that his heart could regrow
In a second he was down as something she said
"Tommy I'm with someone else"
"Tommy I'm with someone else"
She used to be in love with me
And now she's gone and taken all the love away
She used to be in love with me
And now I'm just a memory
She used to be in love with me
And now she's gone and taken all the love away
She used to be in love with me
And now I'm just a memory
Well Tommy never turned to aggression nor fear
Instead he started working in the New Year
But at night she'd invade his thoughts and his dreams
He can't keep his mind away from Krista it seems
And, so cold but funny enough
Krista and her boyfriend were broken up
But until they meet again and the time feels right
This is how it ends tonight
This is how it ends tonight
She used to be in love with me
And now she's gone and taken all the love away
She used to be in love with me
And now I'm just a memory
