Didn't We

This time we almost made the pieces fit, didn't we?

This time we almost made some sense of it, didn't we?

This time I have the answer right here in my hand

Then I touched it, and it had turned to sand

This time we almost sang the song our song in tune, didn't we?

This time we almost made it to the moon, didn't we?

This time, we almost made our poem rhyme

This time we almost made that long hard climb

Didn't we almost make it this time?
