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
Everybody knows
Almost doesn`t count
Almost heard you saying
You were finally free
What was always missing for you, baby
You`d found it in me
But you can`t get to heaven
Half off the ground
Everybody know
Almost doesn`t count
I can`t keep 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
Gotta find somebody
Not afraid to let go
Want a no-doubt to be-there kind of girl
You came real close
But every time you built me up
You only let me down
And everybody knows
Almost doesn`t count
I can`t keep 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
Maybe you`ll be sorry
Maybe you`ll be cold
Maybe you`ll come runnin` back
From the cruel, cruel world
Almost convince me
You`re gonna stick around
But everybody knows
Almost doesn`t count
Maybe I`ll be there
Maybe I`ll see ya `round
That`s the way it goes
Almost doesn`t count
