(verse 1)
went out last friday night, felt like i was ready to
pretty pair of green eyes, sideways glance from across the room
pretty soon we were locked in conversation
(pre-chorus)
i could've kissed her, leaning up against the driver door
She was almost everything that i've been looking for
(chorus)
She was almost you, almost you
almost someone to hold on to
Almost you, a love to last my whole life
I swear and i think i've found it, the perfect love, she lets me down
best someone else could hope to do
Is take second place and be almost you
(interlude)
you
(verse2)
stumbled on an old photograph, you and me we were holding hands
we were young and so in love, like we couldn't get close enough
what happened to happily ever after
(pre-chorus)
i never look at anyone the way i looked at you
And i'm trying hard to find somebody new
(chorus)
She was almost you, almost you
almost someone to hold on to
Almost you, a love to last my whole life
I swear and i think i've found it, the perfect love, she lets me down
best someone else could hope to do
Is take second place and be almost you
(interlude)
almost you
(pre-chorus)
i never look at anyone the way i looked at you
I'm trying hard to find somebody new
(chorus)
She was almost you, almost you
almost someone to hold on to
Almost you, a love to last my whole life
I swear and i think i've found it, the perfect love, she lets me down
best someone else could hope to do
Is take second place and be almost you
(outro)
almost you
almost you
almost you.
