You hit me up at 2am,

Same story, different guy again.

You say, “Can we talk? I just need air,”

I say “Sure,” like I’m always there.

I play it cool, I play the friend,

I play the fool again and again.

You want a spark, I light the flame,

But somehow I don’t get the name.

✨ [Chorus – Indie Bounce]

I’m not the dream, just the standby call,

You catch me every time you fall.

I’m the laugh when you don’t wanna cry,

The backup plan you never try.

I’m the fix when the damage is done—

Almost the right one... but never the one.

---

You say I know you like no one else,

But you keep choosing someone else.

I bring the peace, you chase the high,

I ask myself “just tell me why?”

We share a song, but not the part

Where you let someone steal your heart.

I'm just the line you always skip,

The call you make but never kiss.

---

✨ [Chorus – Repeat w/ More Feeling]

I’m not the dream, just the standby call,

You catch me every time you fall.

I’m the laugh when you don’t wanna cry,

The backup plan you never try.

I’m the fix when the damage is done—

Almost the right one... but never the one.

🎧 [Bridge – Dreamy Instrumental & Reflective]

Maybe one day you’ll turn around,

And find I’m gone, not hangin’ out.

I gave too much, stayed way too long,

Now you’re the ghost inside my song...

---

🌙 [Final Chorus – Soft Drop & Slow Build]

I’m not the spark that makes you stay,

Just the light that fades away.

I’m the voice you call when you break down,

But never the one you keep around.

I’m the almost, I’m the could’ve been—

But never the start, never the end.

Almost the right one... but never the one.

---

Never the one...

Just almost the one.
