Almost Forever

How long has it been?

Feels like almost forever

Since those days way back when

Back when we were together

The ties that did bind your heart to mine

We thought would never sever

Feels so long ago now

Feels like almost forever

Time sure does fly by

Feels like almost forever

Since we used to laugh and cry

Thought we'd grow old together

We were so sure our love would endure

Through all winter's weather

Now there's a chill on my skin

Remembering when

We were almost forever

It's an age-old sad song

Known all too well by most of us

What more can we do but raise a toast

To the ghost of a love

Still haunting the both of us

How long has it been?

Feels like almost forever

Since you were my best friend

Back when we'd always be together

The ties that do bind

They get tattered sometimes

I guess that's just the way it goes

It was a good ride

It was almost forever
