[start] [Intro: Ambient synth pads with distant vocal chops and soft vinyl noise] [Instrumental only] [Verse 1] You say my name like you mean it tonight But your eyes drift somewhere I can’t find Fingers tracing lines you won’t define Like we’re real, but only in this light You pull me close, then you hesitate Like love’s a line that you’re scared to cross I feel the truth in the way you shake But every touch got a hidden cost [Chorus] We’re almost something, almost real Dancing on a line we never seal You give me just enough to feel Then disappear like it’s no big deal (no big deal) We’re almost fire, almost us Wrapped in doubt and covered in trust Say you want me, but not too much Guess I’m the one you almost love [Instrumental: Soft 808 pulse with filtered synth swell] [Verse 2] Late night calling when you feel alone Voice so sweet but your heart’s unknown Say you miss me, then you switch the tone Like I’m just somewhere you rest your soul I play it cool but it cuts too deep Every “maybe” keeps pulling me in You leave the door just cracked for me But never let me step within [Chorus] We’re almost something, almost real Dancing on a line we never seal You give me just enough to feel Then disappear like it’s no big deal (no big deal) We’re almost fire, almost us Wrapped in doubt and covered in trust Say you want me, but not too much Guess I’m the one you almost love [Bridge: Stripped-down keys with vocal reverb swells] If I stay, I’m losing slowly If I go, you’ll pull me back In between your arms and lonely I don’t know how to react [Chorus] We’re almost something, almost real Dancing on a line we never seal (never seal) You give me just enough to feel Then disappear like it’s no big deal We’re almost fire, almost us Never quite enough, just close enough Say you want me, but not too much Guess I’m the one you almost love (almost love) [Outro: Fading synths with layered falsetto hums] (Almost… almost…) (You almost love me) [end]
