Didn't We

Eddie Kendricks


This time we almost made
the pieces fit, didn't we?
This time we almost made
some sense of it? Didn't we girl?

This time I had the answer
right here in my hand
and I touched it,
and it had turned to sand

This time we almost
sang our song in tune didn't we, girl?
This time we almost made it
to the moon, didn't we girl?

This time we almost made
our poem ryhm
this time we almost made
that long hard climb

Didn't we almost make?
Didn't we almost make?
Didn't we almost make this time?
We should've made it girl!
