I almost got drunk at school at 14
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 breastes
I almost dropped out and moved to L.A.
Where I was almost famous for almost a dayAnd I almost had you
But I guess that doesn't cut it
Almost loved you
I almost wished you woulda loved me tooI almost held up a grocery store
Where I almost did five years and then seven more
And I almost got popped for a fight with a thug
Because he almost made off with a bunch of the drugs
That I almost got hooked on 'cause you ran away
And I wish I woulda had the nerve to ask you to stayAnd I almost had you
But I guess that doesn't cut it
Almost had you
And I didn't even know itYou kept me guessin'
And now I'm destined
To spend my time missin' you
I almost wish you woulda loved me tooHere I go thinkin' 'bout all the things I coulda done
I'm gonna need a forklift 'cause all the baggage weighs a ton
(Baggage weighs a ton)
I know we had our problems, I can't remember oneI 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 awayAnd I almost had you
But I guess that doesn't cut it
Almost had you
And I didn't even know itYou kept me guessin'
And now I'm destined
To spend my time missin' youAnd I almost had you
(Almost had you)
Almost had you
I almost wished you woulda loved me too
(Wished you woulda loved me too)
