Almost December Songtext
von Wayne Willingham

I ... Shouldn′t even be here
You ... shouldn't look at me that way
Things happen in the night
You don′t care what's wrong or right
Until the light of day

I'm old enough, I should know better
You′re an adult, you know the score
Friends say they sympathize
Looking through judgmental eyes
Only make me want you more

And I′m not thinking how or why
I'm looking in your eyes
I′m ... longing for a time
I was not so worldly-wise
If I could only start again with you


Time is a joke God casts upon us
Age, but a number, so they say
Time spent with you nearby
And the decades fall away

Am I just a phase that you'll get over?
My fondest secret memory
How, those many years from now
Will you look back on me?

If you only knew
All I really want to do
Is walk right up to you
And tell you all the places I could take you to

And I′m not thinking how or why
I'm looking in your eyes
I′m ... longing for a time
I was not so worldly-wise
But I remember when
If you had only known me then
If I could only start again
If I could only start again
If I could only start again with you
