Your fingertips across my skin the palm trees swaying in the wind... images.
You sing 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 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 in the shade and when you left, you kissed my lips you told me you would never forget these images... no, 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 now you're gone and I'm haunted and I 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 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.
--A Fine Frenzy, "Almost Lover"
