Paroles de Almost

I heard you're living it up in Chicago I bet you're playing me down in your head We nearly made it but you let go But I let you go before you left I woke up and everything was different Your secrets burst out of the seams You let it out, I had to listen So much for my American dream So much for my American dream We were almost good We were almost We were almost good, we were so close You nearly didn't lie, oh, you didn't tried You're almost good, almost Am I just leaning on wishful thinking? Was what we had like precious gold? 'Cause underneath my heart still sinking Do I have it in me to be bold? Will I wake up and everything be different? Or will you never really leave? Could I still love you in my memories? So much for my American dream So much for my American dream We were almost good, almost We were almost good, we were so close You nearly didn't lie, oh, you nearly tried You were almost good, almost Almost, almost, almost So much for my American dream I guess life is never as it seems
