Almost Love

You learn a little closer, I forgot to breathe,

Your fingers brush mine, then quickly leave.

We laugh like friends, pretending we're fine.

While your eyes keep secretly searching for mine.

You whisper my name beneath thevmoonlighti feel your warmth, butccall it alright

We find excuses to stay a little late.

Walking slowly pretending we're tempting fate.

You fix my hair, I tease your sleeve.

Neither of us knows what we believe.

You hold my gaze a second too long

Then laugh it away like nothing is wrong

If this isn't love whyvdowsnmy heart race?

Why does your touch leave warmth in its place?

Why do I miss you before you go?

Maybe we're lovers waiting to know.
