Almost made you love me 
Almost made you cry 
Almost made you happy, babe 
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 saying 
You were 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 on 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 
Gonna find me somebody 
Not afraid to let go 
Want a no doubt be there kind of man 
You came real close 
But every time you built me up 
You only let me down 
And everybody knows 
Almost doesn't count 
Maybe you'll be sorry 
Maybe you'll be cold 
Maybe you'll come runnin' back, babe 
From the cruel cruel world 
Almost convinced me 
You're gonna stick around 
But everybody knows 
Almost doesn't count 
So maybe I'll be here 
Maybe I'll se you around 
That's the way it goes 
Almost doesn't count
