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'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 have 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 said you'd 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 have 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'll 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 have known you'd bring me heartache
almost lovers always do
I'm trying to build a mix cd for my dearest friend, but so far I've only come up with 4 songs:
Imogen Heap - Speeding Cars
Gregory and the Hawk - Boats and Birds
Bishop Allen - Butterfly Nets
Death Cab For Cutie - I Will Follow You Into the Dark
I need things that are endearing, sweet, encouraging... sadly, I can't think of many male artists that fit that descript. This shouldn't be difficult for me, I've made a thousand mixes before. Themed mixes at that.
