Almost Doesn't Count
Almost made you love meAlmost made you cryAlmost made you happy, babyDidn't I didn't IYou almost had me thinkin'You were turned aroundBut everybody knowsAlmost doesn't count
Almost heard you sayingYou were finally freeWhat was always missing for you, babyYou'd found it in meBut you can't get to heavenHalf off the groundEverybody knowsAlmost doesn't count
I can't keep on lovin' youOne foot outside the doorI hear a funny hesitationOf a heart that's never really sureCan't keep on tryin'If you're looking for moreThan all that I could give youThan what you came here for
Gonna find me somebodyNot afraid to let goWant a no doubt be there kind of manYou came real closeBut everytime you built me upYou only let me downAnd everybody knowsAlmost doesn't count
Maybe you'll be sorryMaybe you'll be coldMaybe you'll come runnin' back, babyFrom the cruel cruel worldAlmost convince meYou're gonna stick aroundBut everybody knowsAlmost doesn't count
So maybe I'll be hereMaybe I'll see ya aroundThat's the way it goesAlmost doesn't count
