I almost got drunk at school, at fourteen   Where I almost made out with the Homecoming Queen   Who almost went on to be Miss Texas   But lost to a slut, with much bigger breast-es   I almost dropped out to move to LA   Where I was almost famous for almost a day      And I almost had you   But I guess that doesn't cut it   Almost loved you   I almost wished you would've loved me too      I almost held up a grocery store   Where I almost did five years and then seven more   Cause I almost got popped for a fight with a thug   Cause he almost made off with a bunch of the drugs   That I almost got hooked on cause you ran away   And I wish I would've had the nerve to ask you to stay      And I almost had you   But I guess that doesn't cut it   Almost had you   And I didn't even know it      You kept me guessin' and now I'm destined   To spend my time missing you   I almost wish you would've loved me too      Here I go, thinking 'bout all the things I could've done   I'm gonna need a forklift, cause all the baggage weighs a ton   (baggage weighs a ton)   I know we've had our problems, I can't remember one      I almost forgot to say something else   And if I can't fit it in, I'll keep it all to myself   I almost wrote a song about you today   But I tore it all up and then I threw it away      And I almost had you   But I guess that doesn't cut it   Almost had you   And I didn't even know it      You kept me guessin' and now I'm destined   To spend my time missing you   And I almost had you (almost had you)   Almost had you      I almost wish you would've loved me too (wish you would've loved me too)
