[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]
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

[Repeat Chorus X 2]

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge 3]
Bruised and battered by your words
Dazed and shattered now it hurts
Haven?t I always loved you

[Repeat Chorus X 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
