Almost Goodbye Lyrics - Singles - Mark Chesnutt

There was rain on the street last night 

We stood beneath the front door light 

And 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 laid 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
