Almost

[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Hate the way you play with my emotions
Get me open
You get me going 
Boy you must get some kick out this 
It’s unfair and you know it
Leave me hopeless
Then say you’re joking

[Pre-Chorus]
Boy I ain’t ask for a picture perfect lover
I been more than realistic
Made a fool of optimism 
Just a tad bit pessimistic
I can’t act like I ain’t want it
Be a lie to say I didn’t
If it happened I was with it
But still okay if it didn’t 
[Chorus]
‘Til you
Got my hopes up
Made me think you was bout something that you wasn’t 
Played a role to get all the things that you wanted
Sold me dreams and pretty visions 
bout a future and commitment
Said youuuuu
Got my hopes up
Had the game set and ain’t tell me that we started
You did everything I told you I had wanted
Sold me dreams and pretty lies
I thought you were almost mine
