Met you where the lights don’t flicker

And my phone was 5%—that’s fate, or just poor planning

You said, “You look like someone who writes poetry in parking lots.”

I said, “You look like a bad decision I’d make twice.”

We ordered fries, didn’t touch ‘em, just talked

And for a second, I thought — “oh no, not again.”

Both

I almost fell in love—

(But I didn’t!)

Almost sent that text—

(But I didn’t!)

Almost let you stay—

(Glad I didn’t?)

But it was kinda fun

Just being almost in love

You said, “I’m a little broken but mostly funny.”

I said, “Cool, I collect red flags like it's a hobby.”

You wore your hoodie like armor,

I wore my playlist like a shield

Still—

It felt... almost real

I almost fell in love—

(But I didn’t!)

Almost cried that night—

(But I didn’t!)

Almost played your song—

(But I skipped it)

Still can’t lie—it felt

Kinda close to love

Some stories don’t need a heartbreak

Just a “what if” and a perfect goodbye

And maybe we weren’t forever

But hey—at least we tried

Both, layered harmonies

I almost fell in love—

(Almost made you mine)

Almost danced in the rain—

(Almost crossed that line)

But almost was enough

For a night that felt just right

We were—

Almost love, in full color light

And I’ll replay it

(Even if we never write)

Almost fell in love...

(But I didn’t)
