Didn't We - Cissy Houston

This time we almost made the pieces fit

Didn’t We, girl?

This time we almost made some sense of it

Didn’t We, girl?

This time I had the answer right here in my hand

Then 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 oh

Didn’t We, girl?

This time we almost made our poem rhyme

This time we almost made that long hard climb

Didn’t We almost make it this time?

This time we almost made the pieces fit

Didn’t We, girl?

This time we almost made some sense of it

Didn’t We, girl?

This time I had the answer right here in my hand

Then 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 oh

Didn’t We, girl?

This time we almost made our poem rhyme

This time we almost made that long hard climb

Didn’t We almost make it this time?
