Dim lights, passing cars
We were almost ours
In between the lines
Fading all the time
We were close enough
Never called it love
Something in your eyes
Felt like late goodbyes
Held it for a while
Like a fragile smile
Never let it stay
Always slipped away
Every time you move
I get pulled to you
Like a quiet wave
I can't ever save
We were almost real
Something I could feel
Now it's just a trace
I can't replace
We were almost there
Hanging in the air
Didn't fall apart
Just never start
Oh oh oh, almost perfect
Oh oh oh, never worth it
Every second in between
Haunts me still
Oh oh oh, close but fading
Oh oh oh, complicated
In the silence of the night
You're my light
Heard you called my name
Through a passing frame
Maybe just my mind
Playing back in time
I don't chase it now
Don't ask when or how
But it lingers on
Like a quiet song
Every time you move
I get pulled to you
Like a quiet wave
I can't ever save
We were almost real
Something I could feel
Now it's just a trace
I can't replace
We were almost there
Hanging in the air
Didn't fall apart
Just never start
Maybe that's the truth
We were just a loop
Never meant to stay
Only drift away
Oh oh oh, almost perfect
Oh oh oh, never worth it
Every second in between
Haunts me still
Oh oh oh, close but fading
Oh oh oh, complicated
In the silence of the night
You're my light
Dim lights, passing cars
We were almost ours
Still it feels so near
When you disappear

Passing Spark
aokiemi
This album is an exploration of emotions that cannot easily be put into words.
Instead of using Japanese lyrics, it focuses on melody, atmosphere, and flow to communicate feeling.
The central theme, "Almost Ours," reflects moments that felt within reach connections, memories, and possibilities that never fully became ours.
It captures fragments of joy, misalignment, afterglow, and the quiet that follows.
All of these are reimagined through catchy, melodic EDM.
This album is also designed with driving in mind.
Late-night roads, sunset highways, and those in-between moments where thoughts drift freely.
The music moves with the scenery, allowing emotions to settle naturally.
Rather than leaving a sense of loss,
this work aims to leave a feeling of quiet release.
