Goodbyes

There's this band that I love, A Fine Frenzy. I first heard of them when iTunes put out a free single by them called, "You Picked Me."

Then, Leslie asked me if I had heard a song by them called, "Almost Lover." I hadn't, so she pulled it up, and I'm ADDICTED!!

I've put it on a playlist at the bottom of my blog, so you can all hear it, if you wish. I didn't make it autostart because that always annoys me...

Here are the 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

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
I 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'd never ever forget these images, no

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
I 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
I should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

I can't stop listening to it, or singing it.

Ironic? I don't think so.

Things that induce laughter/smiles/happy feelings in me today:
1. Almost lovers. May he burn in the bad place for all of the lies.
2. Making pies with my mom.
3. I get to see Bryce soon!! (Grannie says you better come see her.)
4. Good books that I haven't felt for SO long.
