Almost
© Joel Plimmer / Richard Ryan

When you pray for just a little more
But you get a little less
There’s such a narrow margin 
Between love and loneliness
You can win by just a fraction
Or lose by just a hair
Last night you nearly made it
Your heart was almost there

    But almost didn’t hold you 
    When the day was drawing near 
    And almost never told you 
    All those things you had to hear 
    If you’re feeling kind of frightened 
    Like you’ve just seen a ghost 
    Your heart is being haunted 
    By the love you found …  almost

There was something magic in the air
You could cut it with a knife
That certain kind of feeling 
You've wanted all your life
It was meant to last forever
It was so good from the start 
But as he left you told yourself
You’d almost won his heart

    But almost didn’t hold you
    When the day was drawing near
    And almost never told you
    All those things you had to hear
    If you’re feeling kind of frightened 
    Like you’ve just seen a ghost 
    Your heart is being haunted 
    By the love you found …  almost
