Almost There

The time has come for me to disappear

So hold me close one more time my dear

This is a tragedy of the heart

We can't be together but we can't be apart

And this pain it is so raw

I can't be alone in it

I am torn up and twisted

Everything I do reminds me of you

And it kills me not to be able

To be everything you need

Your shadow in the darkness

Your bandage when you bleed

The whisper on your shoulder

That gently guides your soul

So because I love you

I have to let you go

Yes I have to let you go

We were almost there

We were almost there

I hope your next lover

Loves you better than I did

As you sip red wine in the moonlight

On some rooftop in Madrid

Let him look you in the eye

Like I loved to do so much

As you let your body go

And surrender to his touch

And it kills me not to be able

To be everything you need

Your shadow in the darkness

Your bandage when you bleed

The whisper on your shoulder

That gently guides your soul

So because I love you

I have to let you go

Yes I have to let you go

We were almost there

We were almost there

Maybe some day we will be together

And I can have another chance

To be the light that guides your travels

And to kiss you as we dance

We were almost there

We were almost there
