Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You laugh and lean in
Touch my arm
Then pull away
You say
"We're such good friends"
And I nod like that's okay
But my name on your lips
Tastes too right to be a lie
So I drink down this distance
And pretend I'm dry
[Chorus]
'Cause I almost had you
In some other life
Where the ring on your finger
Belonged to mine
Yeah
I almost had you
In some different time
But in this one
In this one
You ain't mine
[Verse 2]
You call when you're tired
Say his temper's running hot
I listen through the static
To the cracks you never spot
You say
"I should let go"
But you never really do
So I patch up his mistakes
Just to keep holding you
[Chorus]
Yeah
I almost had you
In some other life
Where the ring on your finger
Belonged to mine
I swear I feel it
Every time you cry
In that dream world
In that dream
You ain't saying goodbye
[Bridge]
If I was braver
I'd lay it all down on the line (oh, I'd tell you)
If you were lonely
You'd cross that border in your mind
But we live in this town
Built on what-ifs and regret
So I love you in the shadows
And call it my secret
[Chorus]
'Cause I almost had you
When you looked my way
Felt the whole room vanish
For a breath
For a sway
Yeah
I almost had you
But almost don't stay
So I'll love you in my heart
And let you walk away (mm-hmm)
