Especially that A/E... hmmm??...:D LYRICS 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 defence, 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 man of your dreams I took you almost there, I'll be damned if I care Now if I'm not your man We were almost there Looks like I've lost you somewhere And now I'm not the man in your life NO! Well ok, maybe it hurts; maybe I still see my lips brush your face, No! What the hell girl, I'm not fool enough to claim that I'm over you as yet! No...oh no, no... and though I've still got some way to go Lately I'm almost there, I'll be damned if I care Now if I'm not your man, We were almost there Watch me someday, Yeah somehow I will make it somewhere I'm going higher, I'll rise so much higher and I'll hold my head higher Almost there, I still smell that perfume you wear Although I'm not your man, We were almost there...! Almost there... It looks like it's almost over, It's almost over It's almost over..... now
