, x2

 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 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

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 would never, never forget

 These images, 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

 Well 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

Should've known you'd bring me heartache

Almost lovers always do
