Almost

Verse 1

I didn’t know I needed someone

Until you appeared.

I tried to let you go,

But your memory lingers when the night is long

Pre-Chorus

I don’t know why you’re still on my mind

I tell myself, “to leave it behind”

You came when I was lost,

And now your shadow won’t let me go

Chorus

Thank you for coming,

though we can’t stay

For lighting the dark,

before drifting away

It Almost felt like love,

I wasn’t afraid,

no not scared at all

Only afraid… to fall in love

Verse 2

You live a life I could never reach

I keep my heart in the quiet you

can’t breach

I told myself this would all fade with time

But you echo in my veins like a secret rhyme

Pre-Chorus

I don’t know why you’re still on my mind

I tell myself, “leave it all behind”

You came when I was lost, and felt alone

now your just a shadow that won’t let me go

Chorus

Thank you for coming,

though we can’t stay

For lighting the dark,

before drifting away

It Almost felt like love,

I wasn’t afraid,

no not scared at all

Only afraid… to fall in love

Bridge

Maybe in another life, we’d be more

But here, I only whisper your name

I hold this almost-love like a secret flame

A fleeting warmth I can’t call mine anyway

Chorus (soft/outro)

Thank you for coming,

though we can’t stay

For lighting the dark,

before drifting away

It Almost felt like love,

I wasn’t afraid,

no not scared at all

Only afraid… to fall in love

Outro

I’ll carry you softly, in the quiet of my mind

A beautiful almost, I can never find
