lyrics
We might have almost met at the junction
We were almost friends in the park
Then I lined my pockets with pieces of her heart
You might've swore we were each almost single
We didn't know we were playing with fire
And so we towed that line, we were dancing on a wire
We should've parted ways in the market
But I saw her late in a bar
Then we almost kissed in the square under the stars
I remember when the days were warm and long
She was in my room with music on
I warned her that I wouldn't fall in love
She said she wasn't sure that was good enough
Well she loves being caught in the middle
And she loves high speed in the sun
And I almost loved her before we came undone
Well she might have been almost perfect
I almost couldn't believe she was real
‘Cause she made me feel like thought I’d never feel
I remember when the days were warm and long
She was in my room with my music on
I warned her that I wouldn't fall in love
She said she wasn't sure that was good enough
We used to talk it round in circles over wine
Can I alleviate my guilt ‘cause I never lied?
I saw her in Soho the other night
I remember when the days were warm and long
She was in my room with my music on
I warned her that I wouldn't fall in love
She said she wasn't sure that was good enough
I remember when the days gave way to dusk
Lying on the grass we laughed so much
I warned her that I wouldn't fall in love
She said she wasn't sure that was good enough
I remember when the nights were short and hot
And how it felt to hold her in the dark
I warned her that I wouldn't fall in love
She warned me that she wouldn’t wait too long
Well I almost called on her birthday
Then I almost called her on mine
But I swear she said at the end she needed time
