[Verse

Down by the river

Where the wildflowers grow

We carved our initials

Where the willow trees wove

Whispers of secrets the night couldn't hold

Didn't we almost have it all?

[Verse

Crickets were chirping

Moon in a haze

Hands intertwined through the wandering maze

But time slipped by

Like a ghost in the hall

Didn't we almost have it all?

[Chorus

Summer nights fading

Like a dimming flame

We danced on the edge

Caught in life’s game

Hearts left bare with a quiet call

Didn't we almost have it all?

[Verse

Footprints in morning dew washed by the rain

Memories linger

Yet silence remains

Through life's passage

We'll always recall

Didn't we almost have it all?

[Bridge

Old love letters yellowed by time

Songs of the sparrows

Sweet and sublime

Reflections in the mirror

They still enthrall

Didn't we almost have it all?

[Chorus

Summer nights fading

Like a dimming flame

We danced on the edge

Caught in life’s game

Hearts left bare with a quiet call

Didn't we almost have it all?
