what i almost had

Look out your window, you'll catch me crying

Sulking in silence, sitting in the car

Cold Colorado, I'm off to college

You're hanging hostage, still working at the bar

Do you always get this nervous in the spring, my dear?

Tell me, is it any easier this year?

Though I tried my best, there's no forgetting you

Had it all worked out, but life had plans for you too

Since I made it out of this small town, I figured you would stick around

But I can't get back what I almost had with you

Oh, what I almost had with you

I'm too shy to talk, so we took a walk

Too dumb to make you laugh, instead I pissed you off

I quit making noise to hang with the boys

Making excuses, doing things I don't enjoy

Do you always get this nervous in the spring, my dear?

Tell me, is it any easier this year?

Though I tried my best, there's no forgetting you

Had it all worked out, but life had plans for you too

Since I made it out of this small town, I figured you would stick around

But I can't get back what I almost had with you

Oh, what I almost had with you

Four more days till we last speak after a track meet

You're in the front, I'm in the backseat

Of your best friend's truck when he turns and he says he's a cold-headed ****

And I was way too young to realize it's dead in the winter, it's gone by the springtime

You can just drop me by the stop sign

I know it's cold, I'll be fine
