Almost Here

Brian:
Did I hear you right
'Cause 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?

Delta:
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
'Cause you're only almost here

Brian:
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

Both:
Bruised and battered by your words
Dazed and shattered now it hurts

Brian:
Haven't I always loved you?

Delta:
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
'Cause you're only almost here

Both:
Bruised and battered by your words
Dazed and shattered now it hurts

Brian:
Haven't I always loved you?

Delta:
But when I need you
You're almost here

Brain:
Well I never knew how far behind I'd left you

Delta:
And when I hold you you're almost here

Delta:
And when I hold you you're almost here





I've always had a fondness for this song, and I thought it's rather depictive of the misconceptions some couples have between themselves, thus reflective of gender differences when it comes to how they manage relationships. It's a nice song, isn't it?
