almost lover

Lyrics

your fingertips across my skin, the palm trees swayin' in the wind, images, you sang me spanish lullabies, the sweetest sadness in your eyes, clever trick, i never want to see you unhappy, i thought you'd want the same, for me, goodbye my almost lover, goodbye my hopeless dream, i'm trying not to think about you, can't you just let me be, so long my luckless romance, my back is turned on you, should've known you'd bring me heartache, almost lovers always do, we walked along a crowded street, you took my hand and danced with me, images, and when you left you kissed my lips, you told me you'd never ever forget these, images, no, but i never want to see you unhappy, i thought you'd want the same, for me, goodbye my almost lover, goodbye my hopeless dream, i'm trying not to think about you, can't you just let me be?, so long my luckless romance, my back is turned on you, should've known you'd bring me heartache, almost lovers always do, i cannot go to the ocean, i cannot drive the streets at night, i cannot wake up in the morning, without you on my mind, so now you're gone and i'm haunted, and i bet you're just fine, did i make it that easy, to walk right in and out of my life, goodbye my almost lover, goodbye my hopeless dream, i'm trying not to think about you, can't you just let me be, so long my luckless romance, my back is turned on you, should've known you'd bring me heartache, almost lovers always do
