Almost Always

So what you packed up, picked up your love and left
I can pick up 50 channels on the TV set
I've got 10 toenails I can paint a nice shade of pink
But when the fun's done in a second or two
I kinda sorta maybe start missin you
So I crank up the radio to drown out the thoughts I think

Almost always you never cross my mind
Almost always I never cry
Every other minute I'm strong as I can be
It's just those lonely minutes in between
But I'm doin OK almost always

Just because I let the dog sleep on the bed
Doesn't mean I'm wishin you were here instead
Whisperin sweet words, lyin all close to me
Yeah, I don't dream about you 'cause I lie awake
I always thought sleep was over rated anyway
I find most of the time I'm almost over you as I'll ever be

Almost always you never cross my mind
Almost always I never cry
Every other minute I'm strong as I can be
It's just those lonely minutes in between
But I'm doin OK almost always
