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 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
