Almost something

Verse 1

You were headlights on an empty street

Flickered bright, then you disappeared from me

I still hear your laugh in my sleep

Echoes of what we could’ve been

Pre-Chorus

And I keep running circles in my mind

Trying to rewrite every goodbye

But I can’t change the line we crossed

Between what’s found and what’s lost

Chorus

We were almost something, almost right

Like a spark that fades before it lights

Every word we left unspoken

Still hangs between the open

We were close enough to feel the flame

But too scared to call it by its name

Yeah, we were almost something

Almost something tonight

Verse 2

You still show up in my mirror eyes

Like a ghost that never learned to hide

Maybe timing wasn’t on our side

Maybe love was just too shy

Pre-Chorus

And I keep dreaming softer every time

You’re the verse I can’t quite rhyme

But I still hum it every day

Like maybe you’ll hear me anyway

Chorus

We were almost something, almost right

Like a spark that fades before it lights

Every word we left unspoken

Still hangs between the open

We were close enough to feel the flame

But too scared to call it by its name

Yeah, we were almost something

Almost something tonight

Bridge

If I had one more minute

Would I finally admit it?

That losing you still feels like

A song I never finished

Final Chorus

We were almost something, almost right

Like a sunset gone before the night

Every word we left unspoken

Still hangs between the open

We were close enough to feel the flame

But too scared to call it by its name

Yeah, we were almost something

Almost something tonight
