Didn't We Almost Have It All

If you've been reading my recent posts, the reasons this song is on repeat on the internal ipod are likely obvious:

Remember when we held on in the rain
The night we almost lost it
Once again we can take the night into tomorrow
Living on feelings
Touching you I feel it all again

Didn't we almost have it all
When love was all we had worth giving?
The ride with you was worth the fall my friend
Loving you makes life worth living
Didn't we almost have it all
The night we held on till the morning
You know you'll never love that way again
Didn't we almost have it all

The way you used to touch me felt so fine
We kept our hearts together down the line
A moment in the soul can last forever
Comfort and keep us
Help me bring the feeling back again

Didn't we have the best of times
When love was young and new?
Couldn't we reach inside and find
The world of me and you?
We'll never lose it again
Cause once you know what love is
You never let it end

Whew, Whitney! Thought I was just about cried out but that performance, especially having recently lost your physical form from this Earth, brought out the waterworks again. Thank you for this song, and I particularly want to affirm two aspects of these beautiful lyrics:

1) The ride is most definitely worth the fall, every single time

2) I know what love is, and I'll never let it end

And then close with your question (love when you scream this one):

Didn't we?
