Almost made you love me
Almost made you cry
Almost made you happy, baby
Didn´t I didn´t I
You almost had me thinkin´
You were turned around
But everybody knows
Almost doesn´t count

Almost heard you saying
You were finally free
What was always missing for you, baby
You´d find it in me
But you can´t get to heaven
Half off the ground
Everybody knows
Almost doesn´t count

I can´t keep on lovin´ you
One foot outside the door
I hear a funny hesitation
Of a heart that´s never really sure
Can´t keep on tryin´
If you´re looking for more
Than all that I could give you
Than what you came here for

Gonna find me somebody
Not afraid to let go
Want a no doubt be there kind of man
You came real close
But every time you built me up
You only let me down
And everybody knows
Almost doesn´t count

Maybe you´ll be sorry
Maybe you´ll be cold
Maybe you´ll come runnin´ back, baby
From the cruel cruel world
Almost convince me
You´re gonna stick around
But everybody knows
Almost doesn´t count

So maybe I´ll be here
Maybe I´ll see ya ´round
That´s the way it goes
Almost doesn´t count
