Billy Barrix - Almost

ALMOST
(M. Jovan - N. Jovan)
BILLY BARRIX (CHESS 1662, 1957)

Well-well, almost you broke my heart in two
Well-well, almost you left me sad and blue
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Everybody cries the day you walk by
But I wouldn't believe it was you-ou

Well-well almost I went for your blue eyes
Well-well almost I went for your sweet lies
But everybody's talkin', I might as well be dead
My heart would not listen to my head

Well-well, almost I went for your blue eyes
Well-well, almost I went for your sweet lies
But everybody's talkin', I might as well be dead
My heart would not listen to my head

Well-well, almost I heard the churchbells ring
Well-well, almost I heard the angels sing
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Then one day I found, that you were runnin' around
And now I believe everything

Well-well, almost I heard the churchbells ring
Well-well, almost I heard the angels sing
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Then one day I found, that you were runnin' around
And now I believe everything
A-almost, almost, almost, almost
Baby almost...
