Almost

(アルバム： Center Point Road - 2019)

When I got trucked on that old field
I almost quit that team
I almost gave up guitar
'Cause it hurt to play those strings
And everybody told me "No man"
If I gave up on my dream
Almost, let it go

I almost broke my leg
Riding dirt bike with no fear
I almost lost my best friend
Over some girl freshman year
I almost lost my licence
Driving home after two beers
Almost, Lord knows

Oh but when I look back now
Thank God for the almost
Thank God for the so close
Thank God for the night
I came within an inch of that fence post
For the doors that opened, for the ones that slammed closed
Thank God for the girls I thought I'd marry
But left me heart-broke
Thank God for the highs, thank God for the lows
Thank God for the almost

I almost got that tattoo on my back
That said," Delta Chi"
Almost didn't visit granddad
The week before he died
Almost didn't kiss that girl
Turned out to be my wife
Guess someone else had something else in mind

Thank God for the almost
Thank God for the so close
Thank God for the kick
That came within an inch of that goal post
For the doors that opened, for the ones that slammed closed
Thank God for the girls I thought I'd marry
But left me heart-broke
Thank God for the highs, thank God for the lows
Thank God for the almost

Thank God for the almost
Thank God for the so close
Thank God for the right
Not left I took when I came to them crossroads
For the doors that opened, for the ones that slammed closed
Yeah, without them where would I be?
Man, I don't know
Thank God for the highs, thank God for the lows
Thank God for the almost

Thank God for the almost
