We don't talk anymore!
We don't talk anymore!
We don't talk anymore!
Like we used to do

I just heard you   the one you've been looking
You've been   for
I wish I would've   that wasn't me
'Cause even after all this time I still  
Why I can't   on
Just the way you did so  

Don't wanna know
Kinda   you're wearing tonight
If he's   onto you so  
The way I did before

Should've known your love was a  
Now I can't get you out of my  
Ohh, it's such a  

That we don't talk anymore
We don't talk anymore
We don't talk anymore
Like we used to do
We don't laugh anymore
What was all of it for?
Ohh, we don't talk anymore
Like we used to do

I just hope you're   next to somebody
Who knows how to   you like me
There must be a good   that you're  
Every now and then I think you
Might want me to come   up at your door
But I'm just too   that I'll be wrong

Don't wanna know
If you're looking into her eyes
If she's holding onto you so tight
the way I did before
I overdosed
Should've known your love was a game
Now I can't get you out of my brain
Oh, it's such a shame

That we don't talk anymore

Oh, we don't talk anymore
Like we used to do
Like we used to do

Don't wanna know
Kinda dress you're wearing tonight
If he's giving it to you just right
The way I did before
I overdosed
Should've known your love was a game
Now I can't get you out of my brain
Oh, it's such a shame

That we don't talk anymore
(We don't we don't)
We don't talk anymore

If he's holding onto you so tight (oh)
The way I did before

I overdosed
Should've known your love was a game (oh)
Now I can't get you out of my brain (woah)
Oh, it's such a shame

That we don't talk anymore

Meaning

In a new interview with MTV News, Puth revealed that the song was written in Japan, and inspired by a conversation with a friend.

“I was in my hotel room, at the Mandarin Hotel, looking out at this wonderful city from the top floor, and I called my guitarist who was in the next room and I said, ‘Dude, can you come to my room really quickly and play this guitar line?’” said Puth. “I didn’t have a microphone, so I recorded his guitar with my iPhone, and I put t in the mix. Then, we went to the Philippines the next day and I put the kick drum in.”

And if you’re wondering about the lyrics, the “Marvin Gaye” singer said they were inspired by a phone call he had with a friend who had just gotten out of a relationship.

“I remember a conversation I had with my friend. He had just broken up with this girl, and I was like, ‘So, are you going to talk to her anymore?’ And he was like, ‘Nah, we don’t talk anymore.’”
