almost lover always do

Almost Lover by A Fine Frenzy

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

I 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
I 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'd never ever forget these images, no

I 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
I 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 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
I should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do
