and when i need you,you're almost here.
and i know thats,not enough.
and when i'm with you,
i'm close to tears,'cos you're only almost here.

 i would change the world,if i had a chance.
oh won't you let me,
treat me like a child,
throw your arms around me.
oh please protect me,
bruised and battered by your words,
dazed and shattered now it hurts.
oh havent i always loved you?

and when i need you,
you're almost here,and i know thats,not enough.
and when i'm with you,
i'm close to tears,'cos you're only
almost here.

bruised and battered by your words,
dazed and shattered now it hurts.
haven't i always loved you?
but when i need you,you're almost here.
well i never knew how far behind i left you.
and when i hold you,you're almost here.
well i'm sorry that i took our love for granted.
and now i'm with you,
i'm close to tears,'cos i know i'm almost here.
only almost here
