Until May (Stripped)

We liked drinking, and I liked smoking
Was that all we had?
Can't beleive she asked
There must have been more, back in the beginning
We were laughing, crying, two years of trying
Oh well

But all that time
It was kinda rough
You were in my head
But not for love
Just for old times' sake
To keep me safe
A world without this would surely just be pain
Or would it be just what we need?

When the line cut out
How did it end like that?
I thought surely there's more
But no sound
And there were tears on the phone
Goodbye felt so wrong
Laughing, crying while two years were dying
Oh well

'Cause we needed a change
We were too scared to make it
I had her heart
And I could not break it
When she said to me
She needed space
I could see in her eyes she was just gonna stay
For a little while
Just until May

Now it's over
Still feels weird to say it
But each time I do
I feel less
She said "Can we still be friends?
'Cause you mean the world"
But how can I do it
When my heart still calls you my girl?

'Cause people change
Feelings fade
We were both moving on
In different ways
Each of us can say
To the other's face
I'm glad you exist
And I'm glad you're okay
Without me
But it hurts now and then
