[Verse 1] Kissin’ on me, tryna get lucky So close, so close — but I’m not budging You play it cool like you’re not shook But I see the truth in the way you look I keep drawing lines you wanna cross You act like it’s fun, but you hate the loss I know your game — you bait, you pull But I don’t break just ‘cause you're beautiful [Pre-Chorus] You say, “Why fight it?” — hands all on me Like wanting’s the same thing as honesty I’m not fallin’ for almost-lovin’ Not giving half-way — I want all or nothin’ [chorus] You want heat, but I need meaning This ain’t love — it’s just convenient Say the right things, come on too strong Play the part, but you’re reading it wrong So close — you almost got it So close — yeah, you almost got it One more second, you might’ve had it Broke me open — I swear, I felt it Brushed the edge of my guarded heart But I pulled back — too smart to fall that hard [Verse 2] Classy, not careless — I don’t play dumb You throw charm like it’s currency But I don’t buy what I don’t believe I’d be flattered… if I thought you meant it You talk in circles, I'm trying not to roll my eyes Say all the right things at the wrong time I’m not a thrill you forget the next day You tried, you tried — no shot. Goodbye. [chorus] You want heat, but I need meaning This ain’t love — it’s just convenient Say the right things, come on too strong Play the part, but you’re reading it wrong So close — you almost got it So close — yeah, you almost got it One more second, you might’ve had it Broke me open — I swear, I felt it Brushed the edge of my guarded heart But I pulled back — too smart to fall that hard [Bridge – Final Sultry Version] I could’ve let you trace the lace Breath on my neck, hands in the right place Pulled you closer with no warning Turned your midnight into morning Could’ve had me, skin on skin Felt my pulse pull you deeper in But you played games, too scared to sink So I shut it down — didn’t even blink See you around [Pre-Chorus] You say, “Why fight it?” — hands all on me Like wanting’s the same thing as honesty I’m not fallin’ for almost-lovin’ Not giving half-way — I want all or nothin’ You want heat, but I need meaning This ain’t love, it’s just convenient Say the right things, try to get too bold Play the part, don't fit the role So close, you almost got it So close, you almost got it One more second and you'd of had it— Broke me wide open, I swear I felt it Hit the edges of my guarded heart But I pulled back — too smart to fall that hard [outro] So close, you almost had it Hands on me — yeah, you could’ve grabbed it But I don’t melt for maybe And I don’t beg for half-love, baby So close… So close, you almost got it But “almost” only counts in Horseshoes and hand grenades
