Last night you pushed me a little too far
I was not coming back when I left in the car
And there was a time for an hour or two
I was feelin' so free from you

I picked myself up and I drove to the heights
I parked on the ridge, and I looked at the lights
The engine was off and the radio on
And the singer sang and I sang along
And I was

Almost free
There almost wasn't any you and me
I was almost free
Whole new life ahead of me
Almost free

Sunrise risin' over the wheel
The streets are all empty and so is the feel
And this car knows it's the wrong thing to do
But it's drivin' me home to you

Maybe I'm too much in love to be strong
Maybe you knew I'd be back all along
If I could be who you wanted I would
If I could forget, I'd be gone for good
And I was
Almost free
There almost wasn't any you and me
I was almost free
Whole new life ahead of me
Almost free

A little more music and I could be fine
Maybe baby I'll make it next time

Almost free
There almost wasn't any you and me
I was almost free
Whole new life ahead of me
Almost free
