I know you're going far and I know you're going soon
But you know I hate to be here in this cold and empty tomb
And I know that I've seemed tired it's cause I'm always wide awake
Thinking of those promises and all of my mistakes

So I'll close my eyes and try to brainstorm up some reasons to be mad at you
But I know that I have had about a thousand chances to say what I wanted to
Three years isn't lots of time but enough for making up my mind
I should have answered long ago
And I chose this path from the start when I was too scared to take your heart
I know I'll always just be seen by you and everyone as

Just another almost lover always busy thinking of her
Drowning in the sea of my mistakes
Writing songs and wasting time with stupid lyrics that don't rhyme
Just another heart out there to break

And I know that I should stop cause I know it won't come true
But I still can't help that everything's reminding me of you
And I'm always wasting time staring at those photographs
Taken in that summer that I used to make you laugh

So I'll close my eyes and try hard not to think about the things that we could be
But I know that I could never be distracted from the things that mean the most to me
My window closed up too fast wish I was with you in the past
Sitting in the darkness of the side
You laughed as I made fun of your dress I really wanted to confess
I should've known that I would not have been denied by you now

I've become the almost lover always busy thinking of her
Drowning in the sea of my mistakes
Writing songs and wasting time with stupid lyrics that don't rhyme
Just another heart out there to break

But before you start
I think that you think that I think I can still win your heart
And I know that it's wrong
But I've done everything I can think of to help me move on
And if you could just see
That through all of these years and through all of these tears
I will always be known as the almost lover

So I'll close my eyes and just try to remember all the things we did and said
And I'll know that I will always have a little place reserved inside your head
I guess that this is goodbye I'd hate to let you see me cry
So I'll just turn and walk away
We had a good run but you know now is the time to let it go
I hope your hear will always stay here with the one and only

Your good friend the almost lover always busy thinking of her
Drowning in the sea of my mistakes
Writing songs and wasting time with stupid lyrics that don't rhyme
I'm just another heart out there to break

Just another almost lover heart still bleeding thinking of her
drowning in the tears from my mistakes
One day I'll play this song for you and we'll move on like lovers do
Till then I'm just another heart to break
