You fingertips against my skin
The palm trees swaying 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 youd want the same for me

Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
Im trying not to think about you
Cant you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
I shouldve known youd 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 youd never ever forget these images, no

I never want to see you unhappy
I thought youd want the same for me

Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
Im trying not to think about you
Cant you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
I shouldve known youd 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 youre gone and Im haunted
And I bet you are just fine
Did I make it that easy for you
To walk right in and out of my life?

Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
Im trying not to think about you
Cant you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
I shouldve known youd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do
