Amolst lover song

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 you'd never, ever 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

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.......
