Heartache and missed connections take center stage in this emotional rollercoaster. The protagonist reminisces about a love that was almost, but not quite. They danced, they laughed, they shared intimate moments. Yet it was all for naught as the 'almost lover' left, leaving a trail of despair and unfulfilled dreams. The song is a poignant reminder of those relationships that hover on the brink of something more, only to end in heartbreak. It's an ode to the 'what ifs' and 'if onlys', a lament for lost potential. But it's also a bitter-sweet acceptance of reality - some romances are just doomed from the start. So here's to all the 'almost lovers' out there – you may have broken our hearts, but you've certainly made life more interesting!
Almost Lover
Lyrics
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
