Almost Faron Young

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...
