[Intro]
[Primeira Parte]
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
[Segunda Parte]
Almost heard you saying you were finally free
What was always missing for you, babe, you found it in me
But, you can t get to heaven half off the ground
Everybody knows, almost doesn t count
[Refrão]
I can t keep on loving you one foot outside the door
I hear a funny hesitation of a heart that s never really sure
Can t keep on trying if you re looking for more, than all that
I can give you than what you came here for
[Terceira Parte]
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
But everybody knows, almost doesn t count
[Ponte]
Hey , hey (everybody knows)
Hey, hey hey
can t keep on waiting, can t keep on trying
Everybody knows , almost doesn t count
[Refrão]
I can t keep on loving you one foot outside the door
I hear a funny hesitation of a heart that s never really sure
Can t keep on trying if you re looking for more, than all that
I can give you than what you came here for
[Quarta Parte]
Maybe you ll be sorry, maybe you ll be cold
Maybe you ll come running back, baby, from the cruel, cruel world
Almost convinced me you re gonna stick around
But everybody knows, almost doesn t count
[Final]
So maybe I ll be here, maybe I ll see you around
That s the way it goes, almost doesn t count
