Almost You - Ernie Halter

Went out last Friday night

Felt like I was ready to

Pretty pair of green eyes

Sideways glance from across the room

Pretty soon we were locked in conversation

I could have kissed her leaning up against the driver door

She was almost everything that I’ve been looking for

She was almost you

Almost you

Almost someone to hold on to

Almost you

A love to last my whole life

Just when I think I’ve found it, the perfect love, she lets me down

The best someone else could hope to do

Is take second place and be almost you

You

Stumble on an old photograph

You and me, we were holdin' hands

We were young and so in love

Like we couldn’t get close enough

What happened to happily ever after?

I never look at anyone the way I looked at you

I’m tryin' hard to find somebody new

She was almost you

Almost you

Almost someone to hold on to

Almost you

A love to last my whole life

Just when I think I’ve found it, the perfect love, she lets me down

The best someone else could hope to do

Is take second place and be almost you

Almost you

I never look at anyone the way I looked at you

I’m tryin' hard to find somebody new

She was almost you

Almost you

Almost someone to hold on to

Almost you

A love to last my whole life

Just when I think I’ve found it, the perfect love, she lets me down

The best someone else could hope to do

Is take second place and be almost you

Almost you (x3)
