Did I hear
you right
'Cos I thought
you said
let's think it over
You have
been my life
And I never planned
growing old
without you
Shadows bleeding
through the light
where the love
once shined
so bright
Came without
a reason
Don't let go
on us tonight
love's not always
black and white
Haven't I always
loved you?
But when
I need you
you're almost here
and I know that's
not enough
And when
I'm with you
I'm close to tears
'cos you're
only almost here
I would
change the world
If I had a chance
Oh won't you
let me
Treat me
like a child
Throw your arms
around me
Oh please
protect me
Bruised and battered
by your words
Dazed and shattered
now it hurts
Haven't I always
loved you?
But when
I need you
you're almost here
and I know
that's not enough
And when I'm
with you
I'm close to tears
'Cos you're
only almost here
Bruised and battered
by your words
Dazed and shattered
now it hurts
Haven't I always
loved you
But when
I need you
you're almost here
Well I never knew
how far behind
I'd left you
And when I hold you
you're almost here
Well I'm sorry that
I took our love
for granted
And now
I'm with you
I'm close to tears
'Cos I know
I'm almost here
Only almost here
