Memories fade slowly
No, please, don't go, not yet
I was your one and only
And I'm not ready to forget
All the times we shared together
All the words we never said
And I remember
When we almost went to California
We almost fell in love in the sand
And you almost told me to be your woman
So you'll always almost be my man
I think it was late last summer
I saw the distance in your eyes
You said that you found another
Then you told me not to cry
But I knew that's when it started
The beginning of the end
And I remembered
When we almost went to California
We almost fell in love in the sand
And you almost told me to be your woman
So you'll always almost be my man
I guess it was late last winter
Snow falling all around
Wedding bells rang, she entered
But I left without a sound
Oh, I know she'll always love you
But heaven knows that so will I
And I'll remember
When we almost went to California
We almost fell in love in the sand
And you almost told me to be your woman
So you'll always almost be my man
Yes, you'll always almost be my man
