This time we almost
Made the pieces fit
Didn't we, love?
This time we almost
Made some sense of it
Didn't we, love?

This time I had the answer
Right here in my hand
Then I touched it
And it had turned to sand

This time we almost
Sang our song in tune
Didn't we, love?
This time we almost
Made it, made it to the moon
Oh, didn't we, love?

This time we almost
Made our poem rhyme
This time we almost
Made that long hard climb

Didn't we almost make it?
Didn't we almost make it?
Didn't we almost make it
This time?
