NEVER QUITE

LYRICS

[Intro]
Mmm...

[VERSE 1]
It never quite happened for us
We never fell in step long enough
Too nervous to touch
No first move, no such luck

[PRECHORUS]
I’m going away soon
But if I’m honest, I forgot all about you
So let’s have a heart to heart
Clear the air, shine a light on the dark

[CHORUS]
We had something that was something
Special? Maybe not
But googly eyes, it was mutual I thought
And though I regret that I’ll never know your kiss
It’s for the best, we were just kids

Never quite, never quite, never quite on it (on it, on it)
Never quite, never quite, never quite honest (honest, honest)
Never quite, never quite, never quite bought in (bought in, bought in)
Never quite, never quite got it (got it, got it)

[VERSE 2]
It never quite happened for us
Though I had dreams where we mmm...
Fear overcame lust
No first move, so we were just stuck

[PRECHORUS 2]
I’m going back to school,
But if I’m honest, I forgot all about you
So let’s have a heart to heart
No bullshit, there was a spark

[CHORUS]
We had something that was something
Special? Maybe not
But googly eyes, it was mutual I thought
And though I regret that I’ll never know your kiss
It’s for the best, we were just kids

Never quite, never quite, never quite on it (on it, on it)
Never quite, never quite, never quite honest (honest, honest)
Never quite, never quite, never quite bought in (bought in, bought in)
Never quite, never quite got it (got it, got it)

[BRIDGE]
Never quite panned out
Confessing years later doesn’t count
Already counted you out (count me out)
Fell in love, a couple times, out loud

Oh

[CHORUS]
We had something that was something
Special? Maybe not
But googly eyes, it was mutual I thought (mutual I thought)
And though I regret that I’ll never know your kiss (never know your kiss)
It’s for the best, we were just kids

Never quite, never quite, never quite on it 
Never quite, never quite, never quite honest (never, never, never, never, honest)
Never quite, never quite, never quite bought in (bought in, never, never, never, never)
Never quite, never quite got it 

[OUTRO]
It never quite happened for us (oh, oo)
