I almost got that girl - almost had her - in the palm of my hand
I almost got that girl - but didn't feel worthy, didn't believe it, didn't understand (do you understand?)
I almost got that girl - but I let her go - cuz I couldn't show –
what she meant to me - could have set me free
Almost got the point - almost knew it - that I had to show the way
I almost got the point - but blindfolded - not enough to make her stay (please stay!)
I almost got that girl - but I let her go - cuz I couldn't show –
what she meant to me - could have set me free
Almost daring, almost showing, almost finding, almost loving
Almost seeing, almost knowing, almost doing, almost being free
I almost found the way - almost stepped on the path to liberty
I almost found the way - but now I'm stumped - bruised and dumped, back to START for me (back for START for me!)
I almost got that girl - but I let her go - cuz I couldn't show –
what she meant to me - could have set me free
<br> <br> ### Not My RainbowI heard there's good fortune at the end
I heard it is a great place to go
And everyone says it's beautiful
But although they say so
I know it's not my rainbow
My place is a little more distant
My place is a little less vibrant
It's close and easy but I gotta say no
It sure is tempting but it's not my rainbow
Heaven knows that I've seen both sun and rain
and Heaven knows I've felt the thunder and the snow
I'm told it's the place where it all comes together
But it's a place where I can't go
Cuz it's not my rainbow whoo
My place is a little more distant
My place is a little less vibrant
It's close and easy but I gotta say no
It sure is tempting but it's not my rainbow
I always wanted to know where the treasure was hidden
Always wanted to own the map
Only later I learned that the shortest route
Often is the way to the most dangerous trap
<br> <br> My place is a little more distantMy place is a little less vibrant
It's close and easy but I gotta say no
It sure is tempting but it's not
No, It sure is tempting but it's not my rainbow - uh
If I were a flower in your garden – I’d want you to pluck me
so I could spread my scent – into the corners of your room
If I were a guitar in your room – I’d want you to pluck me
so I could spread my sounds – into the corners of your life
The time has come – to show your pluck - In return – I wish you luck
If I were a songbird in your life – I’d want you to pluck up
The courage to spread your love – into the corners of my world
The time has come – to show your pluck - In return – I wish you luck
Such beautiful scents – such beautiful sounds
Such beautiful songs – yet surpassed by the magical - silence of the night
The time has come – to show your pluck - In return – I wish you luck
<br> ### Too Much, Too Little or Too LateI eat too much, I sleep too little, I drink the wrong things
I talk too much, but don’t say anything, my love life really stinks
Just do it, sounds good, but sometimes, I just don’t know how
My limits are reached, I wish I could break out, but somehow I’m not allowed
I feel too much, or maybe not enough, I tune in wrong
I’m hypersensitive, I don’t get the picture, I can hardly write a song
I’m stressed out good, depressed alright, didn’t even get out of bed
HEY, What was that again, is this even happening, or is it just inside my head
(Nothing to be proud of today) - It’s not the right time to celebrate
(Nothing to brag about today) - It’s all too much, too little or too late I’ve seen too much, revealed too little, protecting all the pain
It doesn’t get better, whatever I do, it just remains the same
My secrets make me lonely, absolutely no good, got to give them up
Feels like I’ve got to forget who I was – before I can make it stop
(Nothing to be proud of today) - It’s not the right time to celebrate
(Nothing to brag about today) - It’s all too much, too little or too late
(Rejection) – had to run away - (Uncertain) – of where to stay
(Not deciding) – what I have to do – (Just hiding) – just feeling blue
<br> <br> (Nothing to be proud of today) - It’s not the right time to celebrate(Nothing to brag about today) - It’s all too much, too little or too late – uh!
