Almost

I got the meal

You spilt your wine

The restaurant's closing

Lost track of time

Back at your house now

You say it's a mess

But it's just a stop gap

I take off your dress

We got close, started to feel

Only to leave soon as it's real

We've got so much in common, including the issues

I'll pull away 'cause I know that I'll miss you

That's when it hits me, so suddenly

You were almost the best thing that happened to me

I could pull the car over, got nowhere to be

You could say how you feel, but you chose something mean

That's when it hits me, so suddenly

You were almost the best thing that happened to me

I'm in New York

We've had some space

You're in the ballgown

Fresh out the rain (silence through the elevator now)

You come up to 305 'cause you hate the noise (you hate the noise)

And your friends are all stood outside, talking to boys

And I haven't moved on and you don't get out much

You're still holding me back, it's still me that you trust

We've got so much in common, including the issues

I'll pull away 'cause I know that I'll miss you

That's when it hits me, so suddenly

You were almost the best thing that happened to me

I could pull the car over, got nowhere to be

You could say how you feel, but you chose something mean

That's when it hits me, so suddenly

You were almost the best thing that happened to me

You could say how you feel

But you chose something mean

You come up to 305 'cause you hate the noise

It hits into my lonely nights, hearing your voice

Wonder if we really tried, you'd never be

Almost the best thing that happened to me
