Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro – filtered synth, distant echo] Mm… Yeah… We were close. [Verse 1 – quiet, reflective] I still know the sound of your breathing When the room was barely awake. You’d talk like the future was waiting, But we never let it stay. I held you like something borrowed, Like time was counting us down. Every moment felt fragile, Like love that wasn’t allowed. [Pre-Chorus – soft lift] You’d say, “We’re fine, don’t overthink,” But I felt the ending in between. [Chorus – aching, melodic] We were almost us, almost real, Almost something I could feel. You were mine in the quiet hours, Then gone when the morning came. We were almost us, almost there, Said forever but we never dared. I still love you in ways I don’t show, In places you’ll never know. [Post-Chorus – echoed hum] Mm-mm… Almost. [Verse 2 – deeper, restrained] I see your name in passing moments, In songs I don’t finish now. Every word you never promised Still finds a way back around. You looked at me like you meant it, But your heart was somewhere else. I don’t blame you for leaving, I blame myself for hoping it’d help. [Pre-Chorus – emotional tension] You said, “Love shouldn’t hurt this way,” But we let it anyway. [Chorus – fuller, layered] We were almost us, almost true, Almost everything I wanted from you. You felt safe in the dead of night, Then distant by the light of day. We were almost us, almost right, Held together by maybes and time. I still miss you more than I should, Even knowing we never could. [Bridge – stripped, intimate] If I could rewind the space between us, I wouldn’t ask for more. I’d just stay a little longer At the edge of what we were. [Final Chorus – soft release] We were almost us, that’s the truth, Not enough to hold, enough to bruise. You were love without a name, A memory that still remains. If you ever wonder where I went, I’m still here with what we meant. We weren’t meant to last, I guess— Just meant to feel like this. [Outro – fading synth, breathy echo] Mm… Almost us.
