When You Almost Didn't Love Me

We held hands under a blanket so nobody would see Sitting on the worn old couch, watching TV When you said you had to go, well, you couldn't look my way You were filled with longing and regret, not willing to betray When you almost didn't love me You didn't think that you could care You almost didn't love me And it was more than I could bear Well the air was cold and the night was still, and we sat in the dark We shouldn't be together, but can't bear to be apart We made plans how we would face the world, a ready-made duet You were scared of love but you wanted me, and it was time to admit it You almost didn't love me You didn't think that you could care You almost didn't love me And it was more than I could bear Well some people aren't meant to stick it out, or maybe just mismatched But I know that we are meant to be, forever we're attached When you almost didn't love me You didn't think that you could care You almost didn't love me And it was more than I could bear Then finally you loved me And you showed me that you cared Finally you loved me And now, I think we're there You almost didn't love me But now you showed me you care You almost didn't love me But now I think we're there
