We had the timing wrong, we had the right heart at the wrong doorYou met me when you couldn't and I loved you when you sworeWe were a beautiful maybe in a season made of noThe almost is the hardest one to ever let me goAlmostNot a heartbreak, not a love, just a door we never openedAlmostThe realest thing I never got to have, the word I keep unspokenThere's no closure on an almost, there's no ending to a maybeJust a person in another life who could have been my babyWe were perfect on the paper and impossible in timeAnd I'll wonder on some far-off day if you still think we'd been fineAlmostNot a heartbreak, not a love, just a door we never openedAlmostThe realest thing I never got to have, the word I keep unspokenI hope you're happy, I hope it's real, I hope they hold you rightI hope you don't lie up sometimes and wonder, late at nightWe were almost. And almost is its own kind of forever
