Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Your fingertips across my skin

The palm trees swaying in the wind, images

[Verse 2]

You sang me Spanish lullabies

The sweetest sadness in your eyes, clever trick

[Verse 3]

Well, I'd never want to see, you unhappy

I thought you'd want the same, for me

[Verse 4]

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

[Verse 5]

We walked along a crowded street

You took my hand and danced with me, images

[Verse 6]

And when you left you kissed my lips

You told me you would never, never forget

These images

Well, I'd never want to see, you unhappy

I thought you'd want the same, for me

[Verse 7]

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

[Verse 8]

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

[Verse 9]

Goodbye, my almost lover

Goodbye, my hopeless dream

I'm trying not to think about you, and 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
