[Verse 1]
The story starts but I warn you, it ends too soon
No spoilers
There’s nothing left to do
Potential wasted on pride, let me tell ya
How it would have blown your mind
Expense in the name of
Missed opportunity
Untravelled
Awaiting territory
X marked the spot
For you and me
We left that map for no one to read
So kiss me once for your father and twice for your mother
When you see your sister
Please don’t blow my cover
But, send a blessing
To your little brother
I can’t say byе cause I never said hi
Why?
[Chorus]
Causе we were almost the ones who fell in love in the summer
Sneaking around, mutual friends, undercover
Singing along to Don McLean and Taylor
Windows down, muffled sounds, we had each other
[Post-Chorus]
Almost
We were almost
But we won’t
Cause we were almost
[Verse 2]
It’s like dangling, a
Carrot on a bunny’s nose
You give a little, show interest then it goes
They love a chase
It can be said, but how can you chase what’s already dead?
And I’ll go on
Let it go, out of sight
In turn, mind
So miss me once for your present and twice for your future
When you realise no take back, no reputing
But send a blessing to your little brother
I’ll hold my head high, no please don’t cry
[Chorus]
Cause we were almost the ones who fell in love in the summer
Sneaking around, mutual friends, undercover
Singing along to Don McLean and Taylor
Windows down, muffled sounds, we had each other
[Post-Chorus]
Almost
We were almost
But we won’t
Cause we were almost
[Verse 3]
And maybe I’m to blame
It takes one to know one
At midnight hours
We let us go
I realise you were not
The one that got away
You were the one
I never had
[Chorus]
Cause we were almost the ones who fell in love in the summer
Sneaking around, mutual friends, undercover
Singing along to Don McLean and Taylor
Windows down, muffled sounds, we had each other
[Verse 4]
We never had each other
We were almost the type to street dance at midnight
3am pancakes, we’d be on the next flight
Stomach hurting from laughing
It’s so right
[Post-Chorus]
Almost
We were almost
But we won’t
Cause we were almost
The story starts but I warn you, it ends too soon
