ALMOST MEANT TO BE

[Verse 1] I know we want forever We see it on TV Every movie is always the same Oh, it all ends happily [Verse 2] No one left alone crying Simple love guaranteed It all seems so divine, perfect timing Until it's you and me Oh, until it's you and me [Chorus] 'Cause the edge of North Carolina Still isn't Tennessee A loss that came down to the wire Still means that you got beat We got so close, but close doesn't cut it Like a lock that don't quite fit the key It's easy to almost be something Just like you and me Almost meant to be [Verse 3] We tried talking 'til morning Rewrite all our mistakes We apologized over and over I know we tried everything Now I'm red-eyed and tired Now there's tears on your face We just say sorry over and over, I know Some things never change [Chorus] 'Cause the edge of North Carolina Still isn't Tennessee A loss that came down to the wire Still means that you got beat We got so close, but close doesn't cut it Like a lock that don't quite fit the key It's easy to almost be something Just like you and me Almost meant to be [Post-Chorus] Oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh Oh [Chorus] We got so close, but close doesn't cut it Like a lock that don't quite fit the key It's easy to almost be something Just like you and me Almost meant to be
