The palm trees swaying in the wind, images
We walked along a crowded street
So long, my luckless romance
Right in and out of my life?
Goodbye, my almost lover
I cannot go to the ocean
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Almost lovers always do
I thought you’d want the same for me
And I bet you are just fine
The sweetest sadness in your eyes, clever trick
Can't you just let me be?
Goodbye, my almost lover
You took my hand and danced with me in the shade
My back is turned on you
Should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do
You told me you would never ever forget these images, no
Goodbye, my almost lover
I'm trying not to think about you
Your fingertips across my skin
I'm trying not to think about you
I cannot try the streets at night
Almost lovers always do
My back is turned on you
You sang me Spanish lullabies
Why can't you just let me be?
Well, I’d never want to see you unhappy
Did I make it that easy to walk
Well, I’d never want to see you unhappy
So you're gone and I'm haunted
Can't you just let me be?
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I cannot wake up in the morning
Should've known you'd bring me heartache

And when you left you kissed my lips
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
Without you on my mind
So long, my luckless romance
Should've known you'd bring me heartache
I thought you’d want the same for me
My back is turned on you
