Lyrics for Song: I Almost Do
Lyrics for Album: Red
I bet, this time of night you're still up
I bet, you're tired from a long hard week
I bet, you're sitting in your chair by the window
Looking out at the city and I bet
Sometimes you wonder 'bout me
And I just wanna tell you
It takes everything in me, not to call you
And I wish I could run to you
And I hope you know that
Every time I don't,
I almost do, I almost do
I bet, you think I either moved on or hate you
Cause each time you reach out, there's no reply
I bet, it never ever occurred to you
That I can't say hello to you
And risk another goodbye
And I just wanna tell you
It takes everything in me, not to call you
And I wish I could run to you
And I hope you know that
Every time I don't,
I almost do, I almost do
We made quite a mess babe
It's probably better off this way
And I confess babe
In my dreams you're touching my face
And asking me if I wanna try again
With you
And I almost do
And I just wanna tell you
It takes everything in me, not to call you
And I wish I could run to you
And I hope you know that
Every time I don't,
I almost do, I almost do
I bet, this time of night you're still up
I bet, you're tired from a long hard week
I bet, you're sitting in your chair by the window
Looking out at the city and I hope
Sometimes you wonder 'bout me
