Almost yours

Verse 1)

I see you in the quiet, in the spaces in between

Every word you never say still echoes back to me

I memorize your laughter like a song I can’t replay

‘Cause every time I get too close, you slowly drift away

(Pre-Chorus)

I tried to be the one you needed

But I was loving you alone

You held my hand but never kept it

Now I’m learning to let go

(Chorus)

I was almost yours, but never really had you

Gave you all my heart, but you just let it pass through

I kept holding on, you kept pulling back

Loving you was easy, but you couldn’t love me back

Now I’m standing here with pieces in the dark

You were in my arms, but never in my heart

(Verse 2)

You look at me like I’m somebody you could love

But something in your soul won’t let you open up

And I can’t compete with shadows in your past

So I’m losing to a memory I never had

(Pre-Chorus)

I gave you time, I gave you patience

Gave you more than I should give

But loving you without you loving me

Ain’t no way for me to live

(Chorus)

I was almost yours, but never really had you

Gave you all my heart, but you just let it pass through

I kept holding on, you kept pulling back

Loving you was easy, but you couldn’t love me back

Now I’m standing here with pieces in the dark

You were in my arms, but never in my heart

(Bridge)

Maybe in another life, you’d choose me

Maybe in another time, you’d see

What I saw in you, what you meant to me

But right now, I gotta set my heart free

(Breakdown)

Ohhh… I can’t keep drowning in your silence

No more fighting for your love alone

(Final Chorus)

I was almost yours, but never really had you

Felt like something real, but it just wasn’t true

Now I’m letting go, even though it hurts

‘Cause loving you like this only made it worse

And I’ll find a love that don’t feel so far

I was almost yours… but now I’m who I are

(Outro)

Yeah… I was almost yours

But I’ll be mine again… 💔
