Almost Lover

Your fingertips across my skin
 The palm trees swaying in the wind, images
 ♪
 You sang me spanish lullabies
 The sweetest sadness in your eyes, clever trick
 ♪
 Well, I'd 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 would never, never forget these images, no
 Well, I'd 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 you're gone and I'm haunted
 And I'll bet you are 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
 Why 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
