Almost

(Verse 1)

I watch you in quiet spaces,

like sunlight through the trees,

You’re right there in every moment,

closer than the breeze.

(Pre-Chorus)

I’ve got a thousand reasons,

to turn and walk away,

But the heart has its own seasons,

and you’re my everyday.

(Chorus)

Almost close enough to hold,

but you’re always just out of reach,

Your smile’s the warmth, I’d keep forever,

if only love could teach

you the way I feel, in whispers and songs—

This almost-love, where my heart belongs.

(Verse 2)

You laugh and I catch the echoes,

like stars in midnight’s hand,

I wonder if you hear it too,

the tune I hadn’t planned.

(Pre-Chorus)

I know the lines I can’t cross,

they’re drawn so perfectly,

Yet here I am, just close enough

to feel you next to me.

(Chorus)

Almost close enough to hold,

but you’re always just out of reach,

Your smile’s the warmth, I’d keep forever,

if only love could teach

you the way I feel, in whispers and songs—

This almost-love, where my heart belongs.

(Bridge)

If words were enough, I’d say them all,

but words just fade away,

So I’ll stand in the silence, where almosts fall,

and love you from halfway.

(Chorus)

Almost close enough to hold,

but you’re always just out of reach,

Your smile’s the warmth, I’d keep forever,

if only love could teach

you the way I feel, in whispers and songs—

This almost-love, where my heart belongs.

(Outro)

In this almost-love, where my heart belongs,

I’ll wait in the quiet, I’ll wait in the songs.
