Verse 1

Did I hear you right
‘Cause I thought you said
LetÂ’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

DonÂ’t let go on us tonight
LoveÂ’s not always black and white
HavenÂ’t I always loved you?

Chorus 1

But when I need you
YouÂ’re almost here
And I know thatÂ’s
Not enough
But when IÂ’m with you
IÂ’m close to tears
‘Cause you’re only almost here

Verse 2

I would change the world
If I had a chance
Oh wonÂ’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
HavenÂ’t I always loved you

Chorus 1

But when I need you
YouÂ’re almost here
And I know thatÂ’s
Not enough
But when IÂ’m with you
IÂ’m close to tears
‘Cause you’re only almost here


INST BREAK

Bridge 3

Bruised and battered by your words
Dazed and shattered now it hurts
HavenÂ’t I always loved you

Chorus 3 (outro)

But when I need you, youÂ’re almost here
(Well I never knew how far behind IÂ’d left you)
And when I hold you, youÂ’re almost here
(Well IÂ’m sorry that I took our love for granted)
(Now IÂ’m with you, IÂ’m close to tears
‘Cause I know I’m almost here)
Only almost here
