Lyrics of the song Almost
[Verse 1]
Stepping in from the outside, worn out from a wild ride
She enjoys rolling amidst my remnants nonetheless
Tunes echo from the bedside, 'Stella by Starlight' in stride
That was my heartbeat, the rhythm that kick-starts 'Night and Day'
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Similar melodies linger in her room's embrace
I'm almost myself again, she's almost you
[Chorus]
I wouldn't know where to begin
Melodious notes drift in the dark
Stay calm, my naive heart
Don't spoil this for me
I wouldn't know where to begin
Melodious notes drift in the dark
Stay calm, my naive heart
Don't spoil this for me
[Verse 2]
Tell me who, and I'll express my gratitude
Those devoted to Duke Ellington's love affairs
Do I owe each caress to lips and cheeks as tender as Chet can croon
Let's lose ourselves and revel in the good times
Form smoke rings with this figurine
Exhale sweet and thick until thoughts of it dissolve
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I've regained some vibrancy, she believes it too
I chuckle like my old self again, she chuckles like you
[Chorus]
I wouldn't know where to begin
Melodious notes drift in the dark
Stay calm, my naive heart
Don't spoil this for me
I wouldn't know where to begin
Melodious notes drift in the dark
Stay calm, my naive heart
Don't spoil this for me
[Bridge]
I wouldn't know where
I wouldn't know where
I wouldn't know where, I wouldn't know where
I wouldn't, mmm
I wouldn't know where
I wouldn't know where
I wouldn't know where, I wouldn't know where
I wouldn't know
[Verse 3]
The mere thought of you, am I melancholy?
A divine love seems distant
I manage fine on some nights without you
Oh, the radio's newsreader narrates
Tales of Russian lullabies
She'll turn to me in the night and inquire, 'Is everything alright?'
And, Lord
[Chorus]
I wouldn't know where to begin
Melodious notes drift in the dark
Stay calm, my naive heart
Don't spoil this for me
I wouldn't know where to begin
Melodious notes drift in the dark
Stay calm, my naive heart
Don't spoil this for me
I wouldn't know where to begin
Melodious notes drift in the dark (I wouldn't know where)
Stay calm, my naive heart
Don't spoil this for me
I wouldn't know where to begin
Melodious notes drift in the dark (I wouldn't know where)
Stay calm, my naive heart
Don't spoil this for me
