🎵INTRO
*How am I supposed to forget
the way you touched me—
slowly, careful,
like you knew exactly what I needed
before I even said a word.
The way you looked at me
like you understood things
I never explained.
🎵 PRE-CHORUS 1
I didn’t realize
I’d be the one losing
in a game I started—
with no rules, no label,
just us pretending it meant nothing.
🎵 CHORUS 1
(emotional,could repeat lines melodically)
I never expected
we’d run into each other again—
not at a time when we were both tired,
both searching for something
we couldn’t name, and couldn’t find -
in anyone else.
🎵 VERSE / BRIDGE 1
And that night,
on my way to see you,
I already knew.
I knew something would happen,
and maybe I had already chosen it,
even if I shouldn’t have.
🎵 PRE-CHORUS 2
You sat there quietly
while I let everything out—
all the things I avoided,
all the things I didn’t want to feel.
And with every silent nod,
it felt like you understood
more than you should’ve.
🎵 CHORUS 2
When the night started to fade,
you looked at me—
and that was it.
No words needed.
We knew where we were going.
🎵 VERSE 2 / BRIDGE 2
In that place only we knew,
where breathing felt louder
than the talking—
the lines blurred
between what was wrong
and what we wanted.
I’m not sure who moved first,
but I know who gave in— Me.
And honestly,
I can’t even blame myself.
🎵 SOMBR-BREAKDOWN / BRIDGE 3
But now…
I know I have to let go
before everything shifts,
before the story changes
into something we can’t fix.
Before “Almost” turns into a version of us
that breaks everything else.
But how?
How do I walk away
when you were the first person
who made me feel calm
after everything I ran from?
How do I pretend it was nothing
when you felt like the one place
I could rest,
even if I wasn’t meant to stay?
🎵 CHORUS 3 / EMOTIONAL PEAK
I didn’t plan on wanting this—
but I got used to
the way you held me,
the way you looked at me,
the warmth that felt temporary
but safe enough to fall into.
And yeah… I lost.
I lost that night
I didn’t want to end
but knew I had to.
🎵 OUTRO
(soft, reflective, could be hummed or piano fading out)
I know I should go back
to where we started—
but why does it feel like
I can’t go back
to being just - friends?
