It Was Almost Something

[Intro]
It was almost something that I got into with you
It was almost love until the feeling fell out of you

[Verse 1]
My love would make you warm, but never turn you hot
My kisses made you eager until you made me stop
My love was like fire, I built your desire
You almost seemed willing, but never fulfilled it

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, so many times, I tried
Tried to make you mine
But came the day you up and ran away

[Chorus]
It was almost something that I got into with you
It was almost love until the feeling fell out of you

[Verse 2]
I would almost have you, but somehow, you'd just break free
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
What I thought was ours together would just be all in me
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
I felt myself reaching and you come in closer
I started trying harder, but I couldn't hold you

[Pre-Chorus]
You're so near, yet far away
What can I do or say
To bring you 'round to this feeling that I found?
It was almost, it was so close, it was almost, ooh

[Chorus]
It was almost something that I got into with you
It was almost love until the feeling fell out of you

[Verse 3]
Maybe on the way to love, I missed a step or two
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
And that's the key that's keeping me from loving you
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Well, you gave me the come-on, but I read the signs wrong
'Cause when I got bolder, you seemed to get colder

[Pre-Chorus]
Now as we go separate ways
I'm thankful for the days
You let me try, though you'll never ever be mine

[Chorus]
It was almost something that I got into with you
It was almost love until the feeling fell out of you
It was almost something that I got into with you
It was almost love until the feeling fell out of you
It was almost something
