I Almost Believed You

You came to me and told me it was over
Assured me you didn't need her anymore
But that look upon your face was too familiar
It was long ago but I've been there before
It was so much like a movie
That we might as well pretend
For the moment as the camera closes in
And say it one more time with feeling

One more time like you really mean it
The last time you told me you loved me
I almost believed you

If I never realized what I was asking for
I'd be confused upon the presence of your pain
No, your smile cannot disguise the hurt within you
That appears upon the mention of her name
But most of all the strangest thing
That's so hard for me to bear
Are the words that should be music to my ear

Just say it one more time with feeling
One more time like you really mean it
The last time you told me you love me
I almost believed you

Sometimes I wish you'd save that lie for someone else
You want me to believe what you don't believe yourself
Let's not talk about it now
In my life I've made mistakes
This is just one more chance I have to take
Ow

Let's carry on with the story
Let's shoot the scene again
And the moment that the camera closes in

Just say it one more time with feeling
One more time like you really mean it
The last time you told me you loved me
I almost believed you
(I almost believed you)
Yes I did
I almost, almost, almost believed ya
Yeah
