"Almost Like A Song" (Ronnie Milsap) BEAUTIFUL!!! - 02/16/08 04:32 PM
Did you ever hear a song you hadn't heard in ages and then out of the blue you catch it on the radio and say......how could I have forgotten about that song, I absolutely love that song!! That happened in work yesterday. The song is "Almost Like A Song" by Ronnie Milsap. Look how short, sweet and simple the lyrics are. You just never know when you see somewhat sparse words on paper how they might sound when they are matched with that magical melody. You just never know...
"Almost Like A Song"
Once in every life
Someone comes along
And you came to me
It was almost like a song
You were in my arms
Right where you belong
And we were so in love
It was almost like a song
January through December
We had such a perfect year
Then the flame became a dying ember
All at once you weren't here
Now my broken heart
Cries for you each night
And It's almost like a song
But it’s much too sad to write
Now my broken heart
Cries for you each night
And It's almost like a song
But it’s much too sad to write
It's too sad to write

Wondering your comments/thoughts on the song's structure???...it seems in the sing it's verse verse bridge verse verse, but the last verse is sung higher and in a way that the listener knows it's the final verse. Do I have the format correct if we are to get technical here, I am curious??? If you never heard this song, I encourage you to give a listen, it's beautiful!
