Almost
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Almost, you fell in love with me
Almost, you were my bride to be
But someone new came by
And you left me here to cry
Oh how close we were, almost
Almost, I heard the church bells ring
Almost, I heard the choir sing
Well, each promise that was made
You have broken and betrayed
Oh how close we were, almost
Almost, my every dream came true
Almost, I heard you say "I Do"
But I hear now instead
All those unkind words you said
Oh how close we were, almost
Oh how close we were, almost
Oh how close we were, almost
