what i almost had

[00:00.41] Look out your window, you'll catch me crying
[00:06.38] Soaking in silence, sitting in the car
[00:12.17] Cold Colorado, I'm off to college
[00:18.29] You're hanging hostage, still working at the bar
[00:25.84] Do you always get this nervous in the spring, my dear?
[00:31.69] Tell me, is it any easier this year?
[00:37.33] Though I tried my best, there's no forgetting you
[00:43.75] Had it all worked out, but life had plans for you too
[00:49.67] Since I made it out of this small town, I figured you would stick around
[00:55.82] But I can't get back what I almost had with you (uh)
[01:03.46] What I almost had with you
[01:11.36] I'm too shy to talk, so we took a walk
[01:17.53] Too dumb to make you laugh, instead, I pissed you off
[01:23.59] I quit making noise to hang with the boys
[01:29.65] Making excuses, doing things I don't enjoy
[01:36.69] Do you always get this nervous in the spring, my dear?
[01:42.52] Tell me, is it any easier this year?
[01:48.94] Though I tried my best, there's no forgetting you
[01:54.88] Had it all worked out, but life had plans for you too
[02:00.95] Since I made it out of this small town, I figured you would stick around
[02:07.23] But I can't get back what I almost had with you (uh)
[02:14.63] What I almost had with you
[02:22.89] Four more days 'til we last speak after a track meet
[02:26.36] You're in the front, I'm in the back seat
[02:29.55] Of your best friend's truck
[02:31.37] When he turns, and he says, "Who's the curly-headed f-?"
[02:34.42] And I was way too young to realize
[02:36.91] What's dead in the winter is gone by the springtime
[02:40.21] You could just drop me by the stop sign
[02:43.54] I know it's cold, I'll be fine
[02:47.37]
