I guess I didn’t know what I was losing until I was on my own with my blues and I’ve been trying all the excuses that I could find.

Now I’m stuck in thinking of highlights, neglecting the downsides, and romanticizing makes the healing tougher.

You said you'd been scorched, burned, betrayed, and scarred and that's a valid reason to close your loving heart, you don’t wanna come out on the losing end of another love story and end up as bad friends.

Stripped, of all the love and the risk

Stripped, of all the love that you could get

Stripped, and you won’t have a change of heart

Stripped, better end before it starts

When I met you I knew it was it - I would never be the same if you were gonna call it quits.

Some hesitation and courage later I was yours in the mysterious ways of human nature.

If there ever was a true cloud nine, I was up there thinking this must be what life's all about - sharing values, sharing bed, mixing blood until one day you said..

Our act was funny, time for moving on, We’ll catch up over a beer sometime when your love is gone.

Don’t mind my manners or that I turned cold because my way of doing things is doing them on my own and..

Stripped, and solo nowadays

Stripped, I'll live to love another day

Stripped, you know I simply cannot stay

Stripped, I don't mean to hurt you anyway

I close my eyes and see your face, smell the scent of your hair while my hand's on your waist.

One last time I cut myself in the heart and then slip back into the world where I’m solo and I am

Stripped, yeah, I'm solo nowadays

Stripped, of your hands on my face

Stripped, of your kiss and loving lips

Stripped, of the motion of your hips

Stripped, of all the love that could have been

Stripped, you said I can't go on there's something missing
