"Almost Here"
"Almost Here"
Brian McFadden feat. Delta Goodrem
Brian:
Did I hear you right?
Cause I thought you said
Let's think it over
You have been my life
And I never planned
Growing old without you
Shadows bleeding through the light
Where the love once shined so bright
Came without a reason
Don't let go on us tonight
Love's not always black and white
Haven't I always loved you?
Delta:
But when I need you
You're almost here
And I know that's not enough
And when I'm with you
I'm close to tears
'cause you are only almost here
Brian:
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
Brian & Delta:
Bruised and battered by your words
Days are shattered, now it hurts
Brian:
Oh, haven't I always loved you?
Delta:
But when I need you
You're almost here
And I know that's not enough
And when I'm with you
I'm close to tears
'cause you are only almost here
Brian & Delta:
Bruised and battered by your words
Days are shattered, now it hurts
Brian:
Haven't I always loved you?
Delta:
But when I need you
You're almost here
Brian:
Well I never knew how far behind I'd left you
Delta:
And when I hold you
You're almost here
Brian:
Well I'm sorry that I took our love for granted
Brian & Delta:
And now I'm with you
I'm close to tears
Brian:
Cause I know I'm almost here
Brian & Delta:
Only almost here

It's one of those nights when i am feeling particularly sentimental, vulnerable, and allowing myself to sink into that pool of memories, visit blogs i don't want to visit, letting tears gather on the brink, place my heart on the very edge to breaking, imagining and longing for that special someone to put arms tight ard me and let me break down freely.
It's also one of those nights when i let myself think of the times i have been "almost there", the times i have refused to let myself fall truly over the edge, into the abyss. how ppls' accounts and experiences of that plunge have made me afraid of taking that plunge myself. into the point of no return. all the reasons why i am not in love. dunno how to be. dunno who to be in with.
how deep-set insecurities have prevented me from considering love. considering that plunge. unworthy of love. incapable of it.
scared. insecure. i think of those near-misses. the times i nearly fell over the edge. just that one step short.
unworthy. incapable. no capacity for that kind of love.
scared. insecure. unworthy. incapable.
that is why up to now, i am "only almost here".
