SIDE B “I Almost Lost You”
Verse 1 I was walking on a thin line, didn’t see how close I came, Letting someone else’s shadow almost dim your precious flame. I sat alone last night thinking ’bout the promises I made, Realized how fast a good man’s heart can start to drift away. Pre‑Chorus But I caught myself in time, before I let you feel that pain, Baby, you’re the only love that keeps me standing in the rain. Chorus I almost lost you, girl — almost let my weakness win, Almost let a moment take me places I shouldn’t have been. But your love pulled me back, your truth brought me home again, I almost lost you, girl… won’t let my heart slip again. Verse 2 She was knocking on my doorway, trying hard to pull me through, But every step I almost took just led me right back to you. I ain’t proud of how it happened, ain’t proud of how I strayed, But I’m proud I found my strength before the price had to be paid. Bridge (Motown Harmonies) Me: I’m learning from the danger Backing: Learning, learning Me: I’m holding tight to you Backing: Hold her, hold her Me: I won’t let temptation change me Backing: Never, never Me: ’Cause my heart belongs to you Backing: Only you, only you Final Chorus I almost lost you, girl — but I’m stronger than I’ve been, I almost let a moment make me break what we built within. But your love pulled me back, your truth brought me home again, I almost lost you, girl… won’t let my heart slip again.
