Almost Here

Haven�t I always loved you?
But when I need you, you�re almost here
But when I�m with you I�m close to tears
(Now I�m with you, I�m close to tears)
Treat me like a child
Dazed and shattered now it hurts
You have been my life
Shadows bleeding through the light
I would change the world

And when I hold you, you�re almost here
Where a love once shined so bright

Love�s not always black and white
If I had a chance

But when I need you, you�re almost here

Dazed and shattered how it hurts

Haven�t I always loved you
�Cause you�re only almost here
Bruised and battered by your words

Bruised and battered by your words

And I never planned
Don�t let go on us tonight

�Cause you�re only almost here
(Well, I�m sorry that I took our love for granted)
But when I�m with you I�m close to tears
And I know that�s not enough
Growing old without you
(�Cause I know I�m almost here)
But when I need you, you�re almost here
Throw your arms around me
Haven�t I always loved you
Let�s think it over
And I know that�s not enough

Please protect me
(Well, I never knew how far behind I�d left you)
Oh won�t you let me
Came without a reason
