Almost There - Shirley Bassey

If you’re listening now

I hope that I make more sense

'Cause now I’m not quite so young

I’m not quite so foolish in my defense

Pictures that I hid in my room

They now come out

And those places we used to go

I talk about

And now I’m not the girl of your dreams

Well, I took you almost there

I’ll be damned if I care

Now if I’m not girl, we were almost there

Looks like I’ve lost you somewhere

And now I’m not the girl in your life

Well okay, maybe it hurts

And maybe I still feel my lips brush your face

What the hell, I’m not fool enough

To claim that I’m over you as yet

No, oh no

And though I’ve still got some way to go

Well, lately I’m almost there

I’ll be damned if I care

Now that I’m not your girl, we were almost there

Watch me someday

Yeah, somehow I will make it somewhere

Going higher, I’ll rise so much higher

And I’ll hold my head higher

Almost there, that perfume that you wear

Now that I’m not your girl, we were almost there

Almost there
