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 singing You're finally free What was always missing for you Babe you'd found it in me But you can't get to heaven Half off the ground Everbody 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 Gotta find somebody Not afraid to let go Want a no doubt 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 loving 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 You almost convinced me You're gonna stick around But everybody knows Almost doesn't count Maybe I'll be here Maybe I'll see you around That's the way it goes Almost doesn't count
