Almost lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 stopgap, I take off your dress

[Pre-Chorus]
We got close, started to feel
Only to leave soon as it's real

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
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

[Post-Chorus]
(Ah-ah)
You can say how you feel (Ah-ah)
But, you chose something mean (Ah-ah)
(Ah-ah)

[Outro]
You come up to 305 'cause you hate the noise
It eats into my lonely nights, hearing your voice
I wonder if we really tried, you'd never be
Almost the best thing that happened to me
