I Almost Never Loved You

Any other mornin', you might have walked a different street;

Turned a different corner, instead of bumpin' into me.

You'd have never said: "Excuse me."

I'd have never smiled and told you: "That's ok."

We never would have sat down in that quiet coffee shop;

Traded old war stories about loves that we have lost.

I'd have never got your number,

Before I kissed your cheek and walked away.

We wouldn't be here today.

Oh, I almost never loved you:

Another place another time,

I'd have missed your kiss forever,

And watched you walk on by.

I'd have gotten up this morning,

Just another lonely fool.

I could never live without you,

And yet, I almost never loved you.

Now, a man like me, I might as well admit it:

Lovin' you was easy, the trick was fallin' in it.

All the what-ifs and near misses,

The stars that had to line up perfectly:

It scares me now to think

Oh, I almost never loved you:

Another place another time,

I'd have missed your kiss forever,

And watched you walk on by.

I'd have gotten up this morning,

Just another lonely fool.

I could never live without you,

And yet, I almost never loved you.

Right out of the blue,

Right into a dream

Fate must have smiled on me.

Instrumental break.

Oh, I almost never loved you:

Another place another time,

I'd have missed your kiss forever,

And watched you walk on by.

I'd have gotten up this morning,

Just another lonely fool.

I could never live without you,

Yet, I almost never loved you.

Oh, I almost never loved you.
