Almost Love


When I first saw you, I thought you were pretty,
with eyes that just lifted my day.
I said, "hello, how are you?" and you looked at me funny, 
waiting just to hear what I'd say.
Nothing came out and so I walked away...

When I first saw you, it felt so familiar,
calm and so desperately pure.
All of my life, I've been waiting for someone,
who's more than just a girl I adore.
You were inviting, but I wasn't sure.

All of my thoughts are just feelings,
on their way out of my heart.
My heart is on its way out of its mind.

When I first saw you, I thought you were charming,
living with passion so free.
Why do I always take so long to notice,
something so easy to see?
I simply couldn't and you wouldn't stay here with me.

How you you love without knowing
if every last feeling is real?
I can feel everything growing inside.

And it's love or it's almost love,
if you can be certain of your heart,
but so much depends on how you connect with what you
can't expect it to be.

And I love or I almost love,
and this is the reason that I live,
and it's only worth the pain of discovery,
if it uncovers me too.

I miss the feeling of our lips together,
when nothing else mattered at all.
I wanna cover myself with your smile
and lose every sense of my soul.
I'm not afraid to be out of control.

Now I can feel you consuming me gently,
a river is rising in me.
Nothing compares to this frightening sensation.

My heart's a nation underground,
I am a king without a crown.
I kinda feel thre is no doubt;
I think I wanna yell it out.
No matter what I try to do,
I think I am in love with you, but I don't know...

AND IT’S LOVE OR IT’S ALMOST LOVE,
IF YOU CAN BE CERTAIN OF YOUR HEART, 
BUT SO MUCH DEPENDS ON HOW YOU CONNECT WITH WHAT YOU 
CAN’T EXPECT IT TO BE.

AND I LOVE OR I ALMOST LOVE,
AND THIS IS THE REASON THAT I LIVE,
AND IT’S ONLY WORTH THE PAIN OF DISCOVERY,
IF IT UNCOVERS ME TOO.

WHEN I FIRST SAW YOU, I THOUGH YOU WERE PRETTY,
WITH EYES THAT JUST LIFTED MY DAY.
I SAID, “HELLO, HOW ARE YOU?” AND YOU LOOKED AT ME FUNNY,
WAITING JUST TO HEAR WHAT I’D SAY,
NOTHING CAME OUT AND SO I WALKED AWAY….
