Even though I hurt you all the time
You're on my mind, I won't deny
Everything I did I take it back
I'll make it right, at least I'll try
Now there's only one thing on my mind
It's taken me some time, girl
Every night I lay it on the line
I hope you want to try again
I know I will

Don't give up when you're so close
Don't give up when you're almost there
Don't give up when you're so close
I almost care
I almost care

I ain't never gonna know why you stayed
I tried so hard to chase you away
Saying all the words you used to say
You turned around; you turned away

Now there's only one thing on my mind
It's taken me some time, girl
Every night I lay it on the line
I hope you want to try still
You know I will

Don't give up when you're so close
Don't give up when you're almost there
Don't give up when you're so close
I almost care
I almost care
I almost care

Don't give up when you almost care
Now there's only one thing on my mind
I hope you want to try still
You know I will

Don't give up when you're so close
Don't give up when you're almost there
Don't give up when you're so close
I almost care

Don't give up when you're so close
Don't give up when you're almost there
Don't give up when you're so close
I almost care

Don't give up when you're so close
Don't give up when you're almost there
Don't give up when you're so close
I almost care
