I wrote it down And hoped that you would find it Long after I had gone As far away as I could get From those words I couldn't say You'll be better off the day I go away We were almost in love So close but never close enough You wrote it down And put it in my pocket I didn't find it 'til It was too late to change my mind We'll be happier this way I would only let you down if I should stay We were almost in love So close but never close enough
