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]
