Lyrics Didn't We - Carmen McRae

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

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

This time, we almost, ha, almost sang the song in tune
Didn't we?
This time, we almost made it to the moon
Didn't we?

And this time, we almost made a poem rhyme
And this time, we almost made that long, long, long hard climb
Didn't we almost make it?
Didn't we almost make it?
Didn't we almost make it this time?
