Nearly Love

In my eyes...
Well your gaze always ends up there
There's a touch of the insincere
But you can always tell I'm lying

Fighting words...
Well nobody is keeping score
But we're winning a cold, cold war
And I feel so cowardly

And now I love you, love you
Only slightly less
Than I loved you, loved you
And it's hard to confess
But my nearly love
Is not real enough
To be the one
To be the one

In your touch...
Well your body can move in close
But my heart is alone some ghost
I'd never feel you anyway

And now I love you, love you
Only slightly less
Than I loved you, loved you
And it's hard to confess
But my nearly love
Is not real enough
To be the one
To be the one

And now I love you, love you
Only slightly less
Than I loved you, loved you
And my heart's in a mess
Because my nearly love
Is not real enough
To be the one
To be the one

I love you, love you
Only slightly less
Than I loved you, loved you
And it's hard to confess
But my nearly love
Is not real enough
To be the one
To be the one

And now I love you, love you
Only slightly less
Than I loved you, loved you
And my heart's in a mess
Because my nearly love
Is not real enough
To be the one
To be the one
