lyrics

When you said you didn’t want to pry
I know it was just a lie
Was too much trouble
You were so good at giving me my space
That you vanished without a trace
A bursting bubble

When my armor wouldn’t come undone
You decided I was just no fun
It didn’t take long
But you never tried to set me free
Just took what you could get from me
And skipped the swan song

When we looked into each other’s eyes
I guess both of us were in disguise

Hope you’re getting high
Floating on all your freedom
Guess this is goodbye
Didn’t give me time to cry

Maybe I was hard to reach
Like that faraway hidden beach
We found together
Maybe you were self-absorbed
Just looking for your big reward
Not the adventure

All those letters that built me up
Were reflections in your tilting cup

Hope you’re getting high
Floating on all your freedom
Guess this is goodbye
Didn’t give me time to cry

All I wanted was to be your friend
But you thought you could predict the end
Well we’re all changing
At least I kept my feet on earth
Knowing we could wind up hurt
Or wind up strangers

Now I see you’re going back for more
Still looking for your big reward

Hope you’re getting high
Floating on all your freedom
Guess this is goodbye
Didn’t give me time to cry
Didn’t give me time to cry
Didn’t give me time to cry
