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

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’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 have known you’d bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

Prevod na srpski

Skoro ljubavnik

Vrhovi tvojih prstiju po mojoj koži,
palme se njišu na vetru
Slike
Ti pevao si mi španske uspavanke
Najslađa tuga u tvojim očima
Mudar trik

E pa, ne želim te nikad videti nesretnog
Mislila sam da bi i ti meni poželeo isto

Zbogom, moj skoro ljubavniče
Zbogom moj beznadni snu
Trudim se da ne mislim na tebe
Zašto me prosto ne ostaviš na miru?
Zbogom, moja baksuzna romanso
Okrenula sam ti leđa
Trebala sam znati da slomićeš mi srce
Sa skoro ljubavnicima to uvek tako biva

Šetali smo jednom prometnom ulicom
Ti uzemo si me za ruku i plesao sa mnom
Slike
A kada si otišao, poljubio si usne moje
I rekao mi da nećeš nikad, nikad zaboraviti
Ove slike

Ne

E pa, ne želim te nikad videti nesretnog
Mislila sam da bi i ti meni poželeo isto

Zbogom, moj skoro ljubavniče
Zbogom moj beznadni snu
Trudim se da ne mislim na tebe
Zašto me prosto ne ostaviš na miru?
Zbogom, moja baksuzna romanso
Okrenuta su ti moja leđa
Trebala sam znati da slomićeš mi srce
Sa skoro ljubavnicima to tako uvek biva

Ne mogu da idem do okeana
ne mogu da se vozim ulicama noću
ujutru ne mogu da se budim
bez tebe u mislima
Tako da, tebe nema a ja sam opsednuta
a kladim se da ti si sasvim dobro

Zar sam ti toliko
olakšala da tako došetaš i odšetaš
iz mog života?

Zbogom, moj skoro ljubavniče
Zbogom moj beznadni snu
Trudim se da ne mislim na tebe
Zašto me prosto ne ostaviš na miru?
Zbogom, moja baksuzna romanso
Okrenula sam ti leđa
Trebala sam znati da slomićeš mi srce
Sa skoro ljubavnicima to uvek tako biva
