My dreams aren't what they used to be
It's probably 'cause I'm losing sleep
'Cause since you've left I know for sure
There's nothing I wanted more

To tell you you're the one for me
And girl I'll give you everything
But I was scared to let you know
Now it's me here in bed, alone

And now, now it's too late
You've gone away
Took my heart on the run
Yeah, close feels so far
Yeah, that's just what you are

'Cause I almost had you next to me
I almost heard the way you breathe
I almost saw the way you sleep
I almost had you, almost had you

Almost felt you on my lips
I almost held you to my hips
I almost knew the way you kissed
But almost won't bring me back to you (you)
No, won't bring me back to you (you)
Almost won't bring me back to you
Now I wonder where you are
Who you're with and the stars
To help me find my way to you
There's nothing I wouldn't do

To make you feel the love I bring
To make you hear the words I say
I had hoped you'd feel the same
But damn, I was so afraid

And now, now it's too late
You've gone away
Took my heart on the run
Yeah, I don't feel the same
Can't have a thing for somebody step away

'Cause I almost had you next to me
I almost heard the way you breathe
I almost saw the way you sleep
I almost had you, almost had you

Almost felt you on my lips
I almost held you to my hips
I almost knew the way you kissed
I almost had you, almost had you
(Yeah, I almost had you)
Almost held you in my arms
I almost felt your beatin' heart
I almost had you from the start
I almost had you, almost had you

Almost had your mind made up
I almost was the one you love
But almost wasn't good enough
'Cause almost won't bring me back to you

Yeah, won't bring me back to you
Almost won't bring me back to you
Almost won't bring me back to you
Almost won't bring me back to you
