"This Time I Almost Made It" lyrics

"This Time I Almost Made It"

This time I almost made it came so close to saying no
I almost found the words to make you go
This time I almost made it almost pushed you away
But my heart cried out begging you to stay

Now I'm laying here beside you crying softly
Cause I know you're going home to her
Cause you belong to her and you go home to her
I know you steal away I know that'll be another day
That you'll come back again
And I'll keep wondering will I be here till then

Oh, so I'll tell the morning sun that maybe
I can find someone that I can love as much
Or maybe half as much to live without your touch
This time I almost made it this time I almost made it
