The saddest word I ever heard was "almost"
'Cause it means whatever you tried to do, oh, you didn't make it, oh no
You're almost (almost)
Hey, you're almost (almost)
Now, take a man who slaved and has planned his whole life through
Only to find he ran out of time
He didn't live to see his dream come true
So, you say, "He almost" (almost)
Oh, he almost (almost)
Listen, everybody
What I have to say, yeah, happens to all of us sometimes
In some kind of way, hey
You're almost (almost)
Not quite, but you're almost (almost), hey
Ooh-ooh
Almost
Almost
Now, take a girl who's in love with a guy
Oh, but she's much too shy to show it
But when she finally wants to tell him so
Oh, another girl has him going
So, you say, "She almost" (almost)
Oh, she almost (almost)
You're kinda close, but you're almost (almost)
Hey, she almost (almost)
Not quite, but she almost (almost)
Hey, she almost (almost)
You're kinda close, but you're almost (almost)
Hey, almost (almost)
Oh, almost (almost)
Oh, almost (almost), hey
Almost
Almost
Almost
Yea
