Almost Said It 🖤

Almost Said It Verse 1 We were laughing in the backseat Sharing secrets, passing time You leaned your head against me Like it’s always been just fine Your hand brushed mine so lightly I pretended not to feel But my heart was racing quietly Like it finally knew what’s real Pre-Chorus I memorized the way you say my name Like it means a little more than it should Chorus I almost said it in the silence Almost let my feelings show But I swallowed every word, yeah ‘Cause I’m scared of letting go If I cross that line between us Will you still be here with me? So I’ll stay your almost lover Just your best friend I can’t be Verse 2 You talk about forever Like it’s waiting down the road And I smile like I don’t wonder If I’d fit in what you hold You tell me ‘bout your heartbreaks Every girl you couldn’t keep And I hide behind my laughter While my own heart skips a beat Pre-Chorus If loving you is something I can’t say I’ll just keep it buried where it’s safe Chorus I almost said it in the silence Almost let my feelings show But I swallowed every word, yeah ‘Cause I’m scared of letting go If I cross that line between us Will you still be here with me? So I’ll stay your almost lover Just your best friend I can’t be Bridge Maybe in another lifetime I’d be brave enough to try Hold your hand without pretending Look you straight into your eyes But in this one, I’ll protect us Even if it breaks my heart ‘Cause losing you would hurt more Than never playing my part Final Chorus So I won’t say it in the silence I won’t let my feelings show I’ll keep every word unspoken Just to never let you go If loving you means hiding Then that’s how it has to be I’ll stay your almost something While you’re everything to me Outro Yeah, I’ll stay right here beside you Even if you never see… You were always more than friendship You were everything to me
