Almost Lover Lyrics - One Cell In The Sea - 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 

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 

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 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
