what i almost had lyrics

Look out your window, you'll catch me crying Sulking in silence, sitting in the car Cold Colorado, I'm off to college You're hanging hostage, still working at the bar Do you always get this nervous in the spring, my dear? Tell me, is it any easier this year? Though I tried my best there's no forgetting you Had it all worked out but life had plans for you too Since I made it out of this small town I figured you would stick around But I can't get back what I almost had with you Uh What I almost had with you I'm too shy to talk so we took a walk Too dumb to make you laugh, instead I pissed you off I'll quit making noise, to hang with the boys Making excuses, doing things I don't enjoy Do you always get this nervous in the spring, my dear? Tell me, is it any easier this year? Though I tried my best, there's no forgetting you Had it all worked out, but life had plans for you too Since I made it out of this small town I figured you would stick around But I can't get back what I almost had with you Uh What I almost had with you Four more days till we last speak After a track meet, you're in the front I'm in the backseat of your best friends truck When he turns and he says: Who's the curly-headed fuck? And I was way too young to realize What's dead in the winter Is gone by the springtime You can just drop me by the stop sign I know it's cold, I'll be fine
