Almost

Almost you fell in love with me

Almost you were my bride to be

But each promise that was made

You have broken and betrayed

And left me with a faded memory

Almost my precious dreams came true



Almost you whispered dear I do

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 but I hear now

Instead all those unkind words you said

I remember every little thing



Almost your heart I did possess

Almost you brought me happiness

My dreams just won't come true

And there's nothing I can do

Oh, how close we were almost
