Almost Doesn't Count

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 turned around
But everybody knows
Almost doesn't count

Almost heard you saying you were finally free
What was always missing for you
Baby found it in me
But you can't get to heaven half off the ground
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

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 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 running 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 round
That's the way it goes
Almost doesn't count
