The Love We Almost Had Lyrics

My heart is in another's keeping
All but one small part
A piece that somehow found its way
To hide inside your heart

I can go a day or three
With not one thought of you
But then I see a crooked smile
That draws me back into

The way you almost held my hand, dear
The time you kissed my cheek
The words that never left your lips, love
But I heard week after week
The waltzes that we left untaken
The glances drove us mad
The life we didn't live together
And the love that we almost had

I remember it so clearly
The day you first came in
The bight light in your eye
The brown velvet of your skin

The instant ancient understanding
Of what I already knew
That spark of useless fire
The pull that led us to

The way you almost held my hand, dear
The time you kissed my cheek
The words that never left your lips, love
But I heard week after week
The waltzes that we left untaken
The glances drove us mad
The life we didn't live together
And the love that we almost had

The way you almost held my hand, dear
The time you kissed my cheek
The words that never left your lips, love
But I heard week after week
The waltzes that we left untaken
The glances drove us mad
The life we didn't live together
And the love that we almost had

Oh, the love that we almost had
The love that we almost had
