Almost True Lyrics
When I see you sad and so blue
I always fear that you are just sad and blue with me.
When I see you sad and so blue
I feel so blue too when all I do is no use.
But I'm alright if you're okay.
I don't mind myself if you're around to help on our way.
But I'm alright if you're okay.
I don't mind myself if you're around to help on our way.
And that's almost true.
It's almost true.
That's almost true.
I always fear that you are just sad and blue with me.
When I see you sad and so blue
I feel so blue too when all I do is no use.
But I'm alright if you're okay.
I don't mind myself if you're around to help on our way.
I don't mind myself if you're around to help on our way.
And that's almost true.
It's almost true.
That's almost true.

I see this one as a feeling of uselessness in a relationship, the pain of not being able to cheer up the one person you love the most, and guilt the speaker feels for not being able to do so. The two get along great when the speaker's partner is in high spirits, but the speaker knows that this happiness is fleeting, hence their love / connection being "almost true". They almost get along, things almost work.
