已經忘了第一次是在哪裡聽到這首歌
不過Bowling For Soup這團的歌
輕快中時而帶點戲謔
實在是不錯

這首Almost在快樂的曲調中
說出一再錯過的悲哀
是啊,timing is about everything!
來的早不如來的巧
晩一歩就更不用說了,自己角落蹲吧

I almost got drunk at school at 14
Where I almost made out with the homecoming queen
Who almost went on to be miss Texas
But lost to a slut with much bigger breastes
I almost dropped out to move to L.A.
Where I was almost famous for almost a day

And I almost had you
But I guess that doesn’t cut it
Almost loved you
I almost wished you woulda loved me too

I almost held up a grocery store
Where I almost did five years and then seven more
Cuz I almost got popped for a fight with a thug
Cuz he almost made off with a bunch of the drugs
That I almost got hooked on cuz you ran away
And I wish I woulda had the nerve to ask you to stay

You kept me guessin’
And now I’m destined
To spend my time missin’ you
I almost wish you woulda loved me too

Here I go thinkin’ about all the things I could have done
I’m gonna need a forklift cuz all the baggage weighs a ton
I know we had our problems, I can’t remember one.

I almost forgot to say something else
And if I can’t fit it in I’ll keep it all to myself
I almost wrote a song about you today
But I tore it all up and then I threw it away
