I was almost gone |
Lyrics"I Was Almost Gone"By Yves Stilmant © 2025 [Verse 1A] Had my bag packed by the door Wrote one last song, not one note more No plans to stay, no heart to give I'd had enough -- just had to live [Verse 1B] Said goodbye to the neon nights Burned-out bars and blurry lights Swore I'd never fall again But that was right before you walked in [Pre-Chorus] You didn't ask me to explain You just smiled -- and it all changed [Chorus] I was almost gone Almost done Then you lit the dark Like a rising sun I was almost gone Halfway through But your voice said stay And my heart knew I was almost gone Then I found you [Verse 2A] You didn't rush, you didn't push You just saw me through the hush I wasn't lookin', wasn't tryin' But you felt real, not like I was lyin' [Verse 2B] You talked soft, and I sat still Something in me turned so real The road I'd mapped just blew apart But for the first time, I felt my heart [Pre-Chorus] You didn't ask me to believe But you became the air I breathe [Chorus - repeat same] [Bridge] I'd said goodbye to everything But I didn't know what fate would bring You weren't part of the escape plan But now I'm yours -- and here I stand [Final Chorus - Build & Repeat] I was almost gone Almost done You lit the dark Like a rising sun I was almost gone Halfway through But your voice said stay And my heart knew I was almost gone Then I found you |
