歌詞

[Verse 1]

Streetlight on your cheek

You laugh, but you don't speak

Hands in your coat

My name on your tongue

But you swallow the note

Uber doors open slow

You say you really have to go

Your eyes write a line

I almost can read

Then you cut it in time

[Chorus]

I was almost yours

In the back of that car

Half a word, half a breath

Half a fall into your arms

We were almost real

On the edge of the dark

All that touch, all that pause

All that heat you pull apart

You were almost mine

Almost yours

Almost ours

[Verse 2]

Your perfume in my hair

Like proof that you were there

You trace my wrist

Stop short of my palm

Like it's too much to risk

You say, "It's getting late"

But stay standing at my gate

Your stare lingers low

Like a hand on my waist

You refuse to let show

[Chorus]

I was almost yours

In the glow of my door

Half a step, half a kiss

Half a promise on the floor

We were almost real

If you'd leaned a little more

All that want, all that wait

All that silence we adore

You were almost mine

Almost yours

Almost ours

[Bridge]

You breathe in

I breathe out

Every inch

Fades to doubt

(Oh, stay)

Say my name

Or walk away

But don't keep me

In this grey

[Chorus]

I was almost yours

Under soft fading stars

Half a truth, half a lie

Half a heart behind its bars

We were almost real

In a world made of glass

All that slow-burning ache

That you never let surpass

You were almost mine

Almost yours

Almost ours
