From the recording When You Almost Didn't Love Me

Lyrics

We held hands under a blanket, so nobody would see
Sitting on the worn old couch, watching TV
When you said you had to go well, you couldn’t look my way
You were filled with longing and regret, not willing to betray

When you almost didn’t love me
You didn’t think that you could care
You almost didn’t lo-ove me
And it was more than I could bear

Well, the air was cold, and the night was still, and we sat in the dark
We shouldn’t be together, but can’t bear to be apart
We made plans how we would face the world, a ready-made duet
You were scared of love, but you wanted me, and it was time to admit it

You almost didn’t love me
You didn’t think that you could care
You almost didn’t lo-ove me
And it was more than I could bear

Well, some people aren’t meant to stick it out, or maybe just mismatched
But I know that we, are meant to be, forever we’re attached

When you almost didn’t love me
You didn’t think that you could care
You almost didn’t lo- ove me
And it was more than I could bear

Then finally, you loved me
And you showed me that you cared
Finally, you lo- oved me
And now, I think we’re there

You almost didn’t love me
But now you showed me, you care
You almost didn’t love me
But now I think we’re there
