Almost in Love is a song about two people ending off a romantic relationship to be friends, presumably for a girl the other person knew for longer. It also goes in depth about wanting to stay in touch but being in a lot of pain due to the breakup.
[Verse 1]
You're not mine, you never were
You never wanted me like you wanted her
The wrong time, she met you first
Been one too many times, but I never learn
[Pre-Chorus]
I see you're doing good, that makes me smile
Even though I haven't seen your face in a while
I'm still in Hollywood, just a couple miles
I wish you'd stop by, but we know it's not your style
[Chorus]
Remember when you said that we should keep in touch?
Really wanna see you, but it'd hurt too much
Almost in love
I know I really shouldn't, but I miss your touch
Told me that you like me, but it's not enough
Almost in love
[Post-Chorus]
Almost in love, so close to love
Almost in love
[Verse 2]
You moved on, but I never could
You're never gonna call, but I wish you would
Been too long, don't know what to think
I got you on my arm, put you there in ink
[Pre-Chorus]
I see you're doing good, that makes me smile
Even though I haven't seen your face in a while
I'm still in Hollywood, just a couple miles
I wish you'd stop by, but we know that's not your style
[Chorus]
Remember when you said that we should keep in touch?
Really wanna see you, but it'd hurt too much
Almost in love
I know I really shouldn't, but I miss your touch
Told me that you like me, but it's not enough
Almost in love
[Post-Chorus]
Almost in love, so close to love
Almost in love
[Bridge]
It could've been love
It could've been something
Could've been us or we could've been nothing
(We could've been nothing)
Remember when you said that we should keep in touch?
Really wanna see you, but it'd hurt too much
Almost in love
[Chorus]
Remember when you said that we should keep in touch?
Really wanna see you, but it'd hurt too much
Almost in love
I know I really shouldn't, but I miss your touch
Told me that you like me, but it's not enough
Almost in love
[Post-Chorus]
Almost in love, so close to love
Almost in love
Almost in love, so close to love
Almost in love
