I Almost Loved You - My Dying Bride

Across her body I fled

«You never knew» she said

All me listened, and listen still

«All things betray you — and I will»

And in her hand sat my hand

Cold the sun and waters ran

As the deep called me up

I named her as my love

I wandered half, half the night

To cast a secret ring in fire

We’d been lovers only a short time

Yet I stand, pretty in your mouth

You and the night slip by

You are incomplete without me

You were made great

How men left you

A dying star

I almost loved you
