  • I found your hairband on my bedroom floor
    The only evidence that you've been here before
    And I don't get waves of missing you anymore
    They're more like tsunami tides in my eyes
    Never getting dry so I get high smoke in the day then I sleep with the light on
    Weeks pass in the blink of an eye
    And I'm still drunk by the end of the night
    I don't drink like everybody else
    End up forgetting things about myself
    I'm stubborn I'm forward head's just blocked
    My head's still with you but my hearts just not

    So am I close to you anymore if it's over
    And there's no chance that we'll work it out
    That's why you and I ended over U-N-I
    And I said that's fine but you're the only one that knows I lied
    You and I ended over U-N-I
    And I said that's fine, but you're the only one that knows I lied

    Everybody said that we'll be together forever but I know that
    I never wanna settle down come around break up the love like Lego now
    Never wanna turn into another like you
    Sleep with my thoughts dance with my views
    Everything's great but everything's short
    But you live in your halls and I live in a tour bus
    Now I'm in position to be another stalker
    And every thing I say seems to always sound awkward
    Like our last kiss it was perfect but we were nervous
    On the surface
    And I'm always saying everyday that it was worth it
    Pain is only relevant if it still hurts
    I forget like an elephant or we can use a sedative
    And go back to the day we fell in love on first kiss

    So am I close to you anymore if it's over
    And there's no chance that we'll work it out
    Oh you and I ended over U-N-I
    And I said that's fine but you're the only one that knows I lied
    You and I ended over U-N-I
    And I said that's fine but you're the only one that knows I lied

    Because if I was gonna go somewhere I'd be there by now
    And maybe I can let myself down oh
    And thinking I am unaware I keep my feet on the ground
    Keep looking around to make sure I'm not he only one to feel low
    Because if you want I'll take you in my arms
    And keep you sheltered from all that I've done wrong
    And I know you'll say that I'm the only one
    But I know that god made another one of me
    To love you better than I ever will

    'Cause you and I ended over U-N-I
    And I said that's fine but you're the only one that knows I lied
    You and I ended over U-N-I
    And I said that's fine but you're the only one that knows I lied Writer/s: Edward Christopher Sheeran, Jake Nathan Gosling
