Almost Forever and Always

It's almost summer And I almost wish I missed you You were the boy who almost gave you a summer romance And I was the girl who almost gave you everything But instead we gave up. I don't know if I ever loved you at all But I think I almost did. I told you I'd wait forever If forever is what it takes Because you're my forever And forever waits But when forever Only lasts a few days Forever isn't the promise My 'forever' made. Everyone has good and bad days But mine feel more like good hours and bad years And I can almost count on Forever and always being alone and I'm starting to believe "almost" is the saddest word in the English language Because we almost had something great.
