[Verse 1]
We were laughing at nothing on a Tuesday night
Trading all our secrets under blurry lights
You were almost mine, I was almost yours
But we never crossed that halfway floor
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe we liked the tension
More than taking the leap
We kept every line unspoken
’Cause it felt safer to keep
[Chorus]
And I kinda, kinda miss it
That almost-love we didn’t risk it
We were close enough to feel it burn
But too scared to let the tables turn
Yeah I kinda, kinda miss it
But not enough to call it distance
Guess some stories fade before they start
Still… you left a small bruise on my heart
[Verse 2]
You would lean a little closer just to pull away
Act like nothing happened when the sun hit the day
I would play it cool, but we both knew
There was something hiding in the room
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe we feared the ending
Before the beginning came
So we let the spark keep flicker
And pretended it’s the same
[Chorus]
And I kinda, kinda miss it
That almost-love we didn’t risk it
We were close enough to feel it burn
But too scared to let the tables turn
Yeah I kinda, kinda miss it
But not enough to call it distance
Guess some stories fade before they start
Still… you left a small bruise on my heart
[Bridge]
We could’ve been electric
But we stayed in the dark
You touched my hand for one second
And it still knows who you are
[Outro]
So here’s to what we didn’t choose
A sweet mistake I never lose
Yeah I kinda, kinda miss it
But I’m smiling when I do
