Verse 1
I gave you mornings, gave you nights
Every wrong I tried to make right
Learned your silence, read your eyes
Held you steady through the fights
I was there when no one stayed
Built a life in every way
But somewhere in the in-between
You started drifting out of me
⸻
Pre-Chorus
I felt it slipping through my hands
Like I was everything but what you planned
⸻
Chorus
I was ninety percent of everything you needed
But you chased the ten I couldn’t be
Thought the grass was greener on the other side
Now you’re staring back at me
Too late to say you didn’t know
Too late to fix what you let go
Yeah I was almost everything
But you left for the missing ten
⸻
Verse 2
He had something I don’t got
Or maybe just what I am not
Something new, something wild
Something easy for a while
But easy fades and truth cuts deep
And what we had don’t come cheap
Now you’re standing in the wreck
Of something you can’t get back
⸻
Pre-Chorus
Now you see it crystal clear
But clarity don’t change what’s here
⸻
Chorus
I was ninety percent of everything you needed
But you chased the ten I couldn’t be
Thought the grass was greener on the other side
Now you’re staring back at me
Too late to say you didn’t know
Too late to fix what you let go
Yeah I was almost everything
But you left for the missing ten
⸻
Bridge (soft, reflective)
It’s funny how the heart learns pain
When it’s the one that walked away
You had it all within your hands
But traded gold for grains of sand
⸻
Final Chorus (bigger, more emotional)
I was ninety percent of everything you needed
And I gave you all of me
But you chased a feeling you don’t even feel now
And lost what we could be
Now you’re calling, saying my name
But nothing here is left the same
Yeah I was almost everything
But you left for the missing ten
