Almost Lover

Should've known you'd bring me heartache.

Almost lovers always do.

Your finger tips across my skin, the plam trees swayin' in the wind; images. You sang me Spanish lullabyes, the sweetest saddness in your eyes, clever trick.

Well I never want to see you unhappy. Ithought you'd want the same for me.

Goodbye my almost lover. Good bye my hopeless dream.I'm tryin' not to think about you, can't youj ust let me be? So long my luckless romance, my back is turned on you.

We walked along a crowded street, you took hand and danced with me; images. And when you left you kissed my lips. You told me you would never let me forget these images. 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 tryin' 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, Do I make it that easy to walk right in and out of my life?
