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 have 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, never forget these images
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 have known you'd bring me heartache, almost lovers always do
I cannot go to the ocean, 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, 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, can't you just let me be
So long my luckless romance, my back is turned on you
Should have known you'd bring me heartache, almost lovers always do
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 have 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, never forget these images
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 have known you'd bring me heartache, almost lovers always do
