[Verse 1: Brian McFadden]
Did I hear you right?
'Cause I thought you said let's think it over
You have been my life, and I never planned
Growing old without you
Shadows bleeding through the light
Where the love once shined so bright
It came without a reason
Don't let go on us tonight
Love's not always black and white
Well haven't I always loved you?

[Chorus: Delta Goodrem]
But when I need you
You're almost here, and I know
That's not enough
And when I'm with you, I'm close to tears
'Cause you're only almost here

[Verse 2: Brian McFadden & Both]
I would change the world
If I had a chance, oh won't you let me
Treat me like a child, throw your arms around me
Oh please protect me
Bruised and battered by your words
Dazed and shattered now it hurts
Oh, haven't I always loved you?
[Chorus: Delta Goodrem]
But when I need you
You're almost here, and I know
That's not enough
And when I'm with you, I'm close to tears
'Cause you're only almost here
(oooooooooh)

[Bridge: Both & Brian McFadden]
Bruised and battered by your words
Dazed and shattered now it hurts
Haven't I always loved you?

[Outro: Delta Goodrem & Brian McFadden & Both]
But when I need you, you're almost here
Well I never knew how far behind I'd left you
And when I hold you, you're almost here
Well I'm sorry that I took our love for granted
And now I'm with you, I'm close to tears
'Cause I know I'm almost here
Only almost here
