Almost Loved You

First breath, last call

Been running since I learned to crawl

I couldn't win for losing so I gave up tryin'

You came, you stayed

I figured out how to drive you away

Lately I only laugh to keep from cryin'

So close, not quite

Almost saw the light

Darlin' don't think I didn't want to

Hear me when I say

Before you walk away

I almost loved you, I almost loved you

Bring on the pain

If you want tears I can make it rain

Make it easy to drift away down that river

So close, not quite

Almost saw the light

Darlin' don't think I didn't want to

Hear me when I say

Before you walk away

I almost loved you, I almost loved you

I almost held you in my heart

I almost didn't fall apart

I almost made it almost all the way

So close, not quite

Almost saw the light

Darlin' don't think I didn't want to

Hear me when I say

Before you walk away

I wouldn't blame you if you can't stay

But I almost loved you, almost loved you
