Almost Called
Something funny happened today You’d have loved the way it went
I was halfway through a message When I stopped and read again
Nothing heavy, nothing special Just a thing I thought you’d like Funny
how I still forget You’re not part of every night
Most days, I can leave it alone
Tonight, I’m looking at my phone
I almost called you Just to ask about your day
Not to say we should start over I just had something to
say I can live without the big plans All the things we
didn’t do
But the little things still happen And I want to tell you
Someone asked me how you’ve been I said,
“Good,” before I thought
Then admitted we don’t talk now They said sorry; I said,
“Don’t”
Made it through the conversation Even laughed at something else But I
wondered how you’d answer If somebody asked you yourself
Most days, I can leave it alone
Tonight,
I’m looking at my phone
I almost called you Just to ask about your day
Not to say we should start over I just had something to
say I can live without the big plans All the things we
didn’t do
But the little things still happen And I want to tell you
By the end, we weren’t listening We were waiting for our turns
I don’t miss those conversations I miss when you were who I
told first
I almost called you Just to ask about your day
Not to say we should start over I just had something to
say I can live without the big plans All the things we
didn’t do
But the little things still happen And I want to tell you
Nothing heavy, nothing special You’d have laughed.
I know you would.
