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.

I almost got drunk at school, at fourteen

Where I almost made out with the Homecoming Queen

Who almost went on to be Miss Texas

But lost to a slut, with much bigger breastes

I almost dropped down to move to LA

Where I was almost famous for almost a day

And I almost had you

But I guess that doesn't cut it

Almost loved you

I almost wished you would've loved me too

I almost held up a grocery store

Where I almost did five years and then seven more

Cause I almost got bopped for a fight with a thug

Cause he almost made off with a bunch of the drugs

That I almost got hooked on cause you ran away

And I wish I would've had the nerve to ask you to stay

And I almost had you

But I guess that doesn't cut it

Almost had you

And I didn't even know it

You kept me guessin'

and now I'm destined To spend my time missing you

I almost wish you would've loved me too

Here I go, thinking 'bout all the things

I could've done

I'm gonna need a forklift,

cause all the baggage weighs a ton

(baggage weighs a ton)

I know we've had our problems,

I can't remember one

I almost forgot to say something else

And if I can't fit it in, I'll keep it all to myself

I almost wrote a song about you today

But I tore it all up and then

I threw it away

And I almost had you

But I guess that doesn't cut it

Almost had you

And I didn't even know it

You kept me guessin'

and now I'm destined

To spend my time missing you

And I almost had you

(almost had you)

Almost had you

I almost wish you would've loved me too

(wish you would've loved me too)
