Lyrics

When you pray for just a little more
But you get a little less
There's such a narrow margin
Between love and loneliness
You can win by just a fraction
Or lose by just a hair
Last night you nearly made it
Your heart was almost there
But almost didn't hold you
When the day was drawing near
And almost never told you
All those things you had to hear
If you're feeling kind of frightened
Like you've just seen a ghost
Your heart is being haunted
By the love you found ... almost
There was something magic in the air
You could cut it with a knife
That certain kind of feeling
You've wanted all your life
It was meant to last forever
It was so good from the start
But as he left you told yourself
You'd almost won his heart
But almost didn't hold you
When the day was drawing near
And almost never told you
All those things you had to hear
If you're feeling kind of frightened
Like you've just seen a ghost
Your heart is being haunted
By the love you found ... almost
