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 dream 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 But dreams just won't come true And there's nothing I can do. Oh, how close we were almost...
