Almost

Cheryl Wheeler

I'm almost everything you have ever wanted
I'm almost your best dream come true
We fit so perfectly
Oh I almost can't believe
How I'm almost all I need to be

There's something now in your smile
Just this side of distant
And something else just that side of true
This road's so old and worn from
The countless nights I've sworn
Oh I could be all you'd need me to
Almost

I don't know where to go
To find our missing pieces
I sit and stare and wonder where to start
But then I look at you
And I know it can't be true
That something's here pulling us apart

Some days I wonder how we'll walk this line
Some days I think I feel your heart in mine
Well underneath the surface
Love isn't ever perfect - heaven knows
So we'll just close that door
Almost
