[Verse 1]
The beautiful days are long gone
I can’t seem to breathe
It feels like it hasn't been that long
Since you walked away from me
Now I can try to act real strong
But you and I both know I still think of you that way
You should know… that
The beautiful lights, the star filled nights
They don’t mean a thing
'Cause you were my star and so it don’t seem right
Without you here with me
Now I can try to act real strong
But you and I both know it's hard for me to say
You were my soul

[Chorus]
Now I could say that I don’t love you no more
And I could say that I’ve closed the door... for our love
And I can tell you I feel It’s time for us to go our separate ways
But baby, I just wouldn’t be the same
'Cause girl, your love is still on my brain

[Verse 2]
Now when you're in love, it takes time to heal
When someone's broken your heart, it changes how you feel
Girl, I thought that you’d never do me that way
But even after all, I still think of you that way

[Chorus]
Now I could say that I don’t love you no more
(I could say this and I could say that)
And I could say that I’ve closed the door... for our love
And I can tell you I feel It’s time for us to go our separate ways
But baby, I just wouldn’t be the same
'Cause girl, your love is still on my brain

[Bridge]
Now love is a game that we both like to play
But will I win or lose if I go or if I stay? Yeah
Even though I try to hide my broken heart inside
Girl, you know me inside out and I can’t get you off my mind

[Chorus]
Now I could say that I don’t love you no more
And I could say that I’ve closed the door for our love
And I can tell you I feel it’s time for us to go our separate ways
But baby, I just wouldn’t be the same
'Cause girl your love is still on my brain, yeah

Justin Randall Timberlake (born January 31, 1981) is an American singer, songwriter, and actor. Born in Memphis, Tennessee, he appeared on the television shows Star Search and The All-New Mickey Mouse Club as a child. In the late 1990s, Timberlake rose to prominence as one of the two lead vocalists and youngest member of the boy band NSYNC, which eventually became one of the best-selling boy bands of all time.

In 2002, Timberlake released his solo debut, Justified, with some help from The Neptunes and Timbaland on production. Timbaland and Timberlake would continue their collaboration on 2006’s FutueSex/LoveSounds, on which Timbaland produced all but two tracks.
