What We Almost Had

[Verse 1]
Here I am
Standing where we used to be
And I can't comprehend the thought of losing you
What we had was almost meant to be

[Verse 2]
There you are
So damn far away, baby
And do you understand how much it crushes me?
What we had was almost meant to be

[Pre-Chorus]
Talking on the telephone for hours late at night
Roommates eavesdropping
Parking lots, we start to dance in front of car headlights
Just us, skin on skin
Santa Monica sunset, now we're under moonlight
Waves come crashing in
But the timing
Stupid timing
Has got me writing

[Chorus]
I miss so bad what we almost had
It makes me cry when I hear you laugh
I miss so bad what we almost had
It should've worked and that makes me mad
"You and I" should be "we"
That's the way it could be
I miss so bad what we almost had
I miss so damn bad what we almost had

[Verse 3]
All alone
My dress smells like your cologne
And I keep praying that you're gonna
Realize we're partners in crime
The Bonnie to your Clyde
You're the soul that rules with mine, yeah
And we should be

[Pre-Chorus]
Talking on the telephone for hours late at night
Roommates eavesdropping
Parking lots, we start to dance in front of car headlights
Just us, skin on skin
Santa Monica sunset, now we're under moonlight
Waves come crashing in
But stupid timing
Stupid timing
Has got me writing

[Chorus]
I miss so bad what we almost had
It makes me cry when I hear you laugh
I miss so bad what we almost had
It should've worked and that makes me mad
"You and I" should be "we"
That's the way it could be
I miss so bad what we almost had
I miss so damn bad what we almost

[Bridge]
Oh, na, na, na, na, na, na, yeah
Na, na, na, yeah
Every time I hear your name
Na, na, na, yeah
Na, na, na, na, yeah
Na, na, na, yeah
I feel numb with so much pain

[Outro]
'Cause I miss so bad what we almost had
It makes me cry when I hear you laugh
"You and I" should be "we"
That's the way it could be
I miss so bad what we almost had
I miss so damn bad what we almost had
What we almost had
What we almost had
