Almost Was Never

There will be springs

And springy things

There will be April mornings

Without hearts that sink

You will awake

Regard the day

And not a bone in you would wish to

Run away, run away

Almost was never

Almost was never

Almost was never, so in vain

So in vain

There will be smiles

Faces you know

There will be summer dresses

Where your scars won't show

Sometimes a sting

Not more than that

Faintly reminds you of the sorrows

You have had, you have had

Almost was never

Almost was never

Almost was never, so in vain

So in vain
