Heartbreak has a way of making us question everything we once held dear. In this emotionally raw ballad, Gwen Stefani processes the end of a significant relationship, likely inspired by her divorce from Gavin Rossdale. She captures that confusing moment when hatred and love coexist, specifically when a painful memory triggers the realization of how much you once cared for someone who hurt you. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of separation - packed suitcases, divided memories, and the physical act of someone driving away. What makes this song particularly poignant is Stefani's honest exploration of how bewildering it is to cry over someone you've grown to hate, acknowledging that those tears come from remembering the love that once was. #HeartbreakHealing #MovingOn #PostDivorceJourney
Used to Love You
Lyrics
Never thought this would happen
I let it sink in, you're gone
I don't know, know what I'm feeling
I must be dreaming, you're gone
Suitcase, band-aids
Pulling back out the driveway
You go, I'll stay
You can keep all the memories
I thought I was the best thing that ever happened to you
I thought you loved me the most
I don't know why I cry
But I think it's 'cause I remembered for the first time
Since I hated you
That I used to love you
I don't know why I cry
But I think it's 'cause I remembered for the first time
Since I hated you
That I used to love you
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I used to love you
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I used to love you
Are you gone?
There were no boundaries
What, you just pushed me too far
I guess nobody taught you
Nobody taught you how to love
Suitcase, band-aids
Pulling back out the driveway
You go, I'll stay
You can keep all the memories
I thought I was the best thing that ever happened to you
I thought you loved me the most
I don't know why I cry
But I think it's 'cause I remembered for the first time
Since I hated you
That I used to love you
I don't know why I cry
But I think it's 'cause I remembered for the first time
Since I hated you
That I used to love you
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I used to love you
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I used to love you
You know I was the best thing that ever happened to you
Oh, now look at what you lost, oh
You know I was the best thing that ever happened to you
Now look at what you lost, oh
I don't know why I cry
But I think it's 'cause I remembered for the first time
Since I hated you
That I used to love you
I don't know why I cry
But I think it's 'cause I remembered for the first time
Since I hated you
That I used to love you
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I used to love you
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I used to love you
I don't know why I cry
I don't, I don't, I don't
I don't know why I used to love you
I don't, I don't, I don't
I don't know why I cry
I don't, I don't, I don't
I don't know why I used to love you
I don't, I don't, I don't
