Verse 1

Did I hear you right
‘Cause I thought you said
Let’s think it over

You have been my life
And I never planned
Growing old without you

Bridge 1

Shadows bleeding through the light
Where a love once shined so bright
Came without a reason

Don’t let go on us tonight
Love’s not always black and white
Haven’t I always loved you?

Chorus 1

But when I need you
You’re almost here
And I know that’s
Not enough
But when I’m with you
I’m close to tears
‘Cause you’re only almost here

Verse 2

I would change the world
If I had a chance
Oh won’t you let me

Treat me like a child
Throw your arms around me
Please protect me

Bridge 2

Bruised and battered by your words
Dazed and shattered how it hurts
Haven’t I always loved you

Chorus 1

But when I need you
You’re almost here
And I know that’s
Not enough
But when I’m with you
I’m close to tears
‘Cause you’re only almost here

INST BREAK

Bridge 3

Bruised and battered by your words
Dazed and shattered now it hurts
Haven’t I always loved you

Chorus 3 (outro)

But when I need you, you’re almost here
(Well I never knew how far behind I’d left you)
And when I hold you, you’re almost here
(Well I’m sorry that I took our love for granted)
(Now I’m with you, I’m close to tears
‘Cause I know I’m almost here)
Only almost here
