ALMOST MY ALWAYS (Cooper/Jones)

You were almost my always 
Close to sharing all our days 
We nearly made it but fell apart 
Now all that’s left are two broken hearts 
You were almost my always 

We tumbled as things moved fast
Like snow in an avalanche 
But extinguished all too soon
Was the flame that was new
The wind changed, oh so did you 

You were almost my always 
Close to sharing all our days 
We nearly made it but fell apart 
Now all that’s left are two broken hearts 
You were almost my always 

The heat of our passion, so intense 
For a while we made perfect sense 
But out of the blue and into the red 
I’m left lying on an empty bed 
I didn’t think we would ever end

You were almost my always 
Close to sharing all our days 
We nearly made it but fell apart 
Now all that’s left are two broken hearts 
You were almost my always 

You were smoke and mirrors instead of true 
Giving signals I was the one for you 
We came unstuck when you had to go

Was your love only there for show
I guess now I’ll never know 

You were almost my always 
Close to sharing all our days 
We nearly made it but fell apart 
Now all that’s left are two broken hearts 
You were almost my always 
  
You were almost my always 
You were almost my always 
You were almost my always 
Woh…oh…oh…
You were almost my always

Almost My Always
