Half in Love and Almost Happy

[Verse 1]
Heartbreak after heartbreak
And it makes me want to call you out of nowhere
'Cause I still care
But then no good ever came from asking

[Pre-Chorus]
Dangerous questions
Like, what if I'd stayed?
It almost makes me regret walking away

[Chorus]
But I know you'll always be
Almost my hometown James Dean
Almost eighteen and married
Maybe then I'd only be half as lonely as I am right now
Almost the girl of your dreams
Almost too damn easy
But in the end the most we'd ever bе is
Half in love and almost happy

[Verse 2]
I know I'm the bad guy in your story
But you're bеtter for it really
And it's ok if you hate me
'Cause I became the most

[Pre-Chorus]
Dangerous question
Like, what if I'd stayed?
Or what if we tried one more time
Then would everything change?

[Chorus]
But I know you'll always be
Almost my hometown James Dean
Almost eighteen and married
Maybe then I'd only be half as lonely as I am right now
Almost the girl of your dreams
Almost too damn easy
But in the end the most we'd ever be is
Half in love and almost happy

[Verse 3]
Ghost of everything I could have had
You're haunting all of my dreams
Dreams dreams dreams
You're popping up in corners of my mind I only feel when I sleep
I'm digging ghosts up out of closets 'cause I want to try them on for the night
And you know I only want you when it's midnight playing tricks on my mind

[Chorus]
But I know you'll always be
Almost my hometown James Dean
Almost eighteen and married
Maybe then I'd only be half as lonely as I am right now
Almost the girl of your dreams
Almost too damn easy
But in the end the most we'd ever be is
Half in love and almost happy

[Outro]
We were almost, almost happy
Almost happy
