Almost

Title: Almost

Yeah…

Oh…

Late nights…

It was just us

⸻

Every night, same time, you’d hit my line

Had me waitin’ on your text like it was a sign

Wasn’t even calls, just words we’d send

But it felt like more than just “friends”

Four weeks, I was fallin’ slow

You kept it cool, never let it show

Now you tell me we should let it end

Turn around and say we better as friends

⸻

I tried to play it like I’m okay

Like I ain’t feel it in a real way

But girl…

You know I did

⸻

Now the first night’s the worst after you’re gone

Ain’t no late-night text to be holdin’ on

Got me starin’ at my phone, waitin’ on your name

Even though I know it won’t be the same

You say we better off just bein’ friends

But we both know where this could’ve went

You lost somethin’ real, I lost what could’ve been

Girl, we were almost in

⸻

I remember how you leaned on me

At the movies, girl, you felt so close to me

Now it’s space where you used to be

And it’s messin’ with me lowkey

I ain’t even get to do you wrong

No breakin’ trust, we ain’t last that long

You just left when it got too real

Now I’m stuck tryna fight how I feel

⸻

Tell myself I’ma be alright

But it hit different every night

Oh girl…

You know it does

⸻

Now the first night’s the worst after you’re gone

Ain’t no late-night text to be holdin’ on

Got me starin’ at my phone, waitin’ on your name

Even though I know it won’t be the same

You say we better off just bein’ friends

But we both know where this could’ve went

You lost somethin’ real, I lost what could’ve been

Girl, we were almost in

⸻

Don’t tell me it was nothin’

Girl, I know you felt somethin’

You don’t just walk away that fast

If it didn’t mean nothin’

Maybe I was in too deep

Maybe you weren’t ready for me

But don’t act like you ain’t see

What we were about to be

⸻

Yeah…

We were almost…

Almost somethin’

Oh…
