I Almost Had You

by Nat the dreamer   Nov 14, 2005


I was so close to having you
So close to holding your heart
So close to being your only
but slowly my world fell apart

I was seconds away from kissing you
Seconds away from my dreams
Seconds away from breathing your soul
but then my heart ripped from the seams

I was almost a part of you
Almost a part of your destiny
Almost a part of a wonderful life
but things came crashing down on me

I was ready to be with you
Ready to listen to you speak
Ready to give you everything
but now this confidence is weak

Now I'm distant from your world
Now you look into her eyes
Now I stay up every night
Mourning my woeful cries

I can't help but envy her kiss from you
I can't help but wish it was me
I can't help but wonder why
Me and you couldn't be

I wonder how things diminished
I wonder where did I go wrong
I wonder about this great downfall
and I wish it wasn't all gone

I could be your star in the sky
I could be your wave in the sea
I could be your chorus in a song
we could live together happily

She doesn't love you as much as I do
And I know this statement is true
She loves you for what you have
She doesn't love you for you

Please open your eyes
and see that I'm still here
I'd do anything to be with you
I'd wait a thousand years

I almost gave you this letter
because i thought it could work things out
but that you told her you loved her
my heart now heavy with doubt

So i guess this is the end
Things are all over now
But I will still wish every night
that we'll be together somehow

I don't care how we're together
Just as long as we are
Together could be 5,000 miles away
I'd love you no matter how far

Just be with me
Is all I ask for
My heart is weighing down
It can't take it anymore

Goodbye forever, my friend
May good things go your way
maybe we'll see eachother in our new lives
and maybe this time youll stay.
