Your fingertips across my skin
The palm trees swaying in the wind
Images

"Tesla…Tesla…" My name in the wind, the echoes of your voice, now only recollection. Memory is all we have left.

You sang me Spanish lullabies
The sweetest sadness in your eyes
Clever trick

Your expressions, toned for your mood. The inexplicable laughter that you always radiated when you were happy, the pure darkness when you were brooding, but always the underlay of gentle love.

Well, I never want to see you unhappy
I thought you'd want the same for me

Given how you acted, I knew you cared, but I didn't know how much. My naiveté blurred my logic. Now, of course, I realize how obvious it was, but is that just because I know your language?

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

It didn't start out as love, merely duty. Then we found that we liked each other, then we fell in love. When did it start? When did I start feeling my heart flutter every time you talked to me?

We walked along a crowded street
You took my hand and danced with me
Images

I don't know. I think we both tried to deny it, but it leaked out through little things. Like making tea when someone is tired but needs to stay up for a while longer.

And when you left, you kissed my lips
You told me you would never, never forget
These images No

Then one day you kissed me. And that's when we finally gave in to the facts. Why did we resist? Loving you was the best thing for me. But then, were we afraid?

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

Of what? Of others knowing? No. Of it being shattered? Yes. And I shall not forget the day that fear came true.

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

The stuff you loved…it sends me into tears. Anything we loved to do together…same.

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?

Are you in heaven? Take me there if you are, take me to where you are right now. I don't care where, but I need you. How could that just happen, that that beast could kill you? Struck down like you wanted, but I wish you would have listened. If you had, I wouldn't be feeling this void, and you'd be here.

Goodbye, my almost lover

You said you'd love me forever, so do you still love me after death?

Goodbye, my hopeless dream

Dreams are where you hold me now.

I'm trying not to think about you

I could never forget you.

Can't you just let me be?

How long will it hurt? Forever?

So long, my luckless romance

So lucky that you got to grace my life, if only for a little while.

My back is turned on you

Still I remember, still I miss you.

Should have known you'd bring me heartache

You were always reckless, making me worry, but you always came back.

Almost lovers always do

I love you, Nnoitra.
