Lyric

You traced my name

In the fog of the window

Said

"This feels right"

As the sun slid low

I laughed too loud

Just to hide how I trembled

You held my hands

Like you’d never let go

Our almost forever

Hanging on a red string

Too heavy to carry

Too fragile for the wind

We kissed on the fault line

Waiting for the ground to give in

Our almost forever

Still breathing underneath my skin

That crooked frame

On your slanted apartment wall

The plant you swore

You would teach to grow tall

We danced in socks

On a floor full of records

You said

"Don’t leave"

Then you watched me walk out the door

If I called you now

Would you still say my name soft

Would your jacket still

Smell like rain and cold air

Are you saving me

A seat in those late-night stories

Or am I just

That chair you never noticed was bare

The echoes of laughter

In the echoes of time

When mornings were ours

In the golden sunshine

We traced constellations

On the ceiling above

Under those starlit blankets

We whispered of love

Our almost forever

Dancing on the edge of a dream

Too vivid to vanish

Too distant to redeem

We held on like shadows

When the light starts to dim

Our almost forever

Still weaving through my every whim

The coffee on Sundays

With the rain drawing near

The sound of your footsteps

Still so painfully clear

We lingered on moments

Like leaves on the breeze

Hoping the seasons

Would grant us some reprieve

Our almost forever

A melody in the night

Too haunting to quiet

Too tender for the light

We wove our illusions

In the tapestry of time

Our almost forever

Still echoing like a rhyme

If I called you now

Would you still say my name soft?

Would your jacket still

Smell like rain and cold air?

Are you saving me

A seat in those late-night stories?

Or am I just

That chair you never noticed was bare

So here's to our story

In the pages unstained

A tale incomplete

Where our memories remain

Though the book may close

Our almost forever survives

In whispers of dreams

Where love never dies
