The sun is setting on the shore
Now this day is done
Got used to you this close to me
And keeping me warm
This sadness keeps me company
As soon as you're gone
All the promises we made
That we never dreamed we'd break

[Chorus:]

I'll forget everything I knew
Almost a perfect life with you
Memories shine and fade away
We were so close, we were almost
Until the darkness turns to light
I'll get through today but not tonight
Almost a perfect life with you
We were so close, we were almost

I know I must move on from here
Don't think of the past
Sometimes there's no amount of love
That can make it last
All the feelings that we shared
That we'll never have again

[Chorus]

So this is me letting you go
And now I've got no one to run to
We'll always know we were so close
We were almost

[Chorus]
