Rhiannon Giddens - The Love We Almost Had

THE LOVE WE ALMOST HAD (Rhiannon Giddens/Bhi Bhiman) My heart is in another's keeping All but one small part A piece that somehow found its way to Hide inside your heart.

The way you almost held my hand, dear The time you kissed my cheek, The words that never left your lips, love But I heard week after week. The waltzes that we left untaken The glances drove us mad, The life we didn't live together And the love that we almost had. I remember it so clearly The day you first came in, The bright light in your eye, The brown velvet of your skin. The instant ancient understanding Of what I already knew That spark of useless fire, The pull that led us to. The way you almost held my hand, dear The time you kissed my cheek, The words that never left your lips, love But I heard week after week. The waltzes that we left untaken The glances drove us mad, The life we didn't live together And the love that we almost had. The way you almost held my hand, dear The time you kissed my cheek, The words that never left your lips, love But I heard week after week. The waltzes that we left untaken The glances drove us mad, The life we didn't live together And the love that we almost had. Oh, the love that we almost had The love that we almost had...
