Almost Goodbye Lyrics - Singles - Chesnutt Mark

There was rain on the street last night 

We stood beneath the front door light 

Everything we said 

We made sure the neighbors heard 

You called me this, I called you that 

Standing on the welcome mat 

Everything we felt it all came down to just one word 

But you couldn't say it and I couldn't say it 

You know I tried my best to go 

I know you cried 'cause I hurt you so 

It should have been easy 

To say that we were through 

But to walk away from love 

Was more than we could do 

It was almost goodbye 

Almost goodbye 

Now there was sun 

Through the blinds this morning 

When I opened up my eyes 

Outside I could hear a mockingbird 

And I could feel your heartbeat 

As you layed there by my side 

I thought of how the world could end 

With just one word but you didn't say it 

And I didn't say it 

You know I tried my best to go 

I know you cried 'cause I hurt you so 

It should have been easy 

To say that we were through 

But to walk away from love 

Was more than we could do 

It was almost goodbye 

Almost goodbye 

Sometimes the most important words 

Are the ones that you leave unspoken 

You know I tried my best to go 

And I know you cried 'cause I hurt you so 

It should have been easy 

To say that we were through 

But to walk away from love that way 

Was more than we could do 

It was almost goodbye 

Almost goodbye 

No, I couldn't say it was 

Almost goodbye, oh oh 

Almost goodbye
