Almost Lover

Jasmine Thompson

Transposer:

[Intro] [Verse 1] Your fingertips across my skin The palm trees swayin’ in the wind Images You sang me Spanish lullabies The sweetest sadness in your eyes Clever trick [Pre-Chorus 1] I never wanna see you unhappy I thought you’d want the same For me [Chorus 1] Goodbye my almost lover Goodbye my hopeless dream I’m not trying to think about you Can 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 [Verse 2] 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 ever forget these Images No [Pre-chorus 2] But I never wanna see you unhappy I thought you’d want the same For me [Chorus 2] Goodbye my almost lover Goodbye my hopeless dream I’m trying not to think about you Can 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 [Bridge] 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 And now 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? [Chorus 3] Goodbye my almost lover Goodbye my hopeless dream I’m trying not to think about you Can 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

La chanson évoque la tristesse d'une relation inachevée, où les souvenirs d'une connexion intense contrastent avec la réalité de la séparation. L'interprète exprime un profond désir de tourner la page, tout en reconnaissant la beauté éphémère de ces moments partagés. Malgré l'affection ressentie, il est clair que la relation ne peut pas évoluer vers quelque chose de plus profond, laissant place à la mélancolie et à la déception. Dans ce contexte, on ressent l'angoisse et le poids des souvenirs qui rendent difficile l'acceptation de la perte. Les images d'un amour presque parfait sont inquiétantes, comme un rêve qui ne pourra jamais se réaliser. Cette chanson parle d'un adieu à un amour qui, bien que précieux, se révèle finalement être source de douleur.
