Almost

How do you get over
Missing the very last train
Can you stop the clock?
From overbearing feelings

How do you recover from
The flooding and the rain
I’m going through metaphors
To find better meanings

How do you break the cycle
And think outside the circle
I’m holding on a miracle

I wanted you to give me
Something unbelievable
All I got was almost
Instantly forgettable

Wanted you to build me
Something indestructible
All I got was almost

Love is like deep water
Under my unsteady roads
It ripples to the touch
It’s barely keeping me afloat

How do you take shelter
When you’re sinking
With the wreckage

Seems I’m drowning faster
With my extra baggage

How do you break the cycle
And think outside the circle
I’m holding on a miracle

I wanted you to give me
Something unbelievable
All I got was almost
Instantly forgettable

Wanted you to build me
Something indestructible
All I got was almost

Almost

Give me that simple free fall
Hopeful kind of love

I wanted you to give me
Something unbelievable
All I got was almost
Instantly forgettable

Wanted you to build me
Something indestructible
All I got was almost

All I got was almost
Almost
