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.
