almost lyrics

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 breasts
I almost dropped out to move to L.A.
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 loved me too

I almost held up a grocery store
Where I almost did five years and then seven more
'Cuz I almost got popped for a fight with a thug
'Cuz he almost made off with a buncha the drugs
That I almost got hooked on 'cuz you ran away
And I wished I would 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 missin' you
I almost wished you would loved me too

Here I go thinkin' about all the things I could have done
I'm gonna need a forklift 'coz 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
Soon 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 missin' you
And I almost had you
(Almost had you)
Almost had you
I almost wished you would loved me too
Wished would loved me too
