Almost Doesn’t Matter

V1.

I should’ve made a million bucks

Playing some child’s game

I could’ve been a rock star

But those dreams just rolled away

I might’ve been a celebrity

Living a life of fame

But almost only counts in things

Like horseshoes and hand grenades

Chorus

I almost found the answer

I almost claimed my spot

I almost finally got it all

I almost took my shot

Because I never went all in

I watched my dreams get scattered

You can’t measure almost

Because almost doesn’t matter

V2.

What if I was an actor

Or if I had songs to sing

What if I was famous

Right there on your TV

What if I was the person

Everyone wanted to be

You might’ve known me by my name

But never really known me

Chorus

I almost found the answer

I almost claimed my spot

I almost finally got it all

I almost took my shot

Because I never went all in

I watched my dreams get scattered

You can’t measure almost

Because almost doesn’t matter

Bridge

Of all the things I might’ve been

Behind those unlocked doors

The one thing I never want to be

Is only almost yours.

Chorus

I almost found the answer

I almost claimed my spot

I almost finally got it all

I almost took my shot

Because I never went all in

I watched my dreams get scattered

You can’t measure almost

Because almost doesn’t matter
