Lyrics
So Close, to Just Right Words and Music by Anne Abercrombie
V.1
At first you seemed like everything I could ever want
I finally got it right this time or so I thought
But a few too many little things kept weighin' on my mind
Like maybe we're not meant to be, and I've never been the staying kind
It was
Chorus
So close, but not quite
Almost, but not just right
For a while you fit just like a glove
This time I was hopin' for a life-time love
But here I am again, alone at night
'Cause it was so close, but not quite
V.2
Maybe all those little things coulda worked out fine
Maybe I shoulda stuck around, and maybe you would still be mine
Oh baby, I hear maybes in my head alone each day
Like maybe I let the real thing go the day I walked away
Chorus
Bridge
I guess I'll never know if you were the one
From the day I left, there's not one day gone
That I'm sure was I right or wrong
But it was
Chorus
