Emily Pov
I sit at a piano, staring at the keys, not knowing what to do. I don't dare to look around, though I feel someone watching me.
"Play." A familiar voice tells me. Still looking at the piano keys I ask.
"Play what?"
"Play what... what you feel." The voice tells me. I place my fingers on the keys. I start to play, but I don't know what it is. I guess my feelings. Suddenly I get lyrics to sing.
I'd like to say we gave it a try
I'd like to blame it all on life
Maybe we just weren't right
But that's a lie
That's a lie
And we can deny it as much as we want
But in time our feelings will show
Cause sooner or later, we'll wonder why we gave up
Truth is everyone knows,
Almost, almost is never enough
So close to being in love
If I would have known that you wanted me, the way I wanted you
Then maybe we wouldn't be two worlds apart,
But right here, in each others arms
Here we almost, we almost knew what love was
But almost is never enough...
Then the voice joins in and sings on his own. I can't even believe who the voice is.
If I could change the world over night
There'd be no such thing as good bye
You'd be standing right where you were
And we'd get the chance we deserve
Try to deny it as much as you want
But in time our feelings will show
Then I sing with the voice.
Cause sooner or later we'll wonder why we gave up
Truth is, everyone knows
Almost, almost is never enough
(is never enough babe)
We were so close to being in love
(so close)
Of I would have known that you (wanted) me, the way I wanted you
Then maybe we wouldn't be two worlds apart
But right here in each others arms
Here we almost, we almost knew what love was
But almost is never enough
This feels so real, but it doesn't at the same time.
"I miss you Emily. Please come back soon." The voice tells me.
"I miss you too. And I will." I don't know what happened but suddenly I feel cold water.
