Almost

[Verse 1]

I heard you're living it up in Chicago

I bet you're playing me down in your head

We nearly made it but you let go

But I let you go before you left

I woke up and everything was different

Your secrets burst out of the seams

You let it out, I had to listen

[Pre-Chorus]

So much for my American dream

So much for my American dream

[Chorus]

We were almost good

We were almost

We were almost good, we were so close

You nearly didn't lie, oh, you didn't tried

You're almost good, almost

[Verse 2]

Am I just leaning on wishful thinking?

Was what we had like precious gold?

'Cause underneath my heart still sinking

Do I have it in me to be bold?

Will I wake up and everything be different?

Or will you never really leave?

Could I still love you in my memories?

[Pre-Chorus]

So much for my American dream

So much for my American dream

[Chorus]

We were almost good, almost

We were almost good, we were so close

You nearly didn't lie, oh, you nearly tried

You were almost good, almost

Almost, almost, almost

[Outro]

So much for my American dream

I guess life is never as it seems
