Lyrics for Song: So Long, So Long
Lyrics for Album: Dusk And Summer [2006]
Hand out the window,
Floatin' on air.
Just a flip of the wrist,
And I am wavin' you goodbye.
Drive past the lifeguard stand,
Where I'd sit around waitin' for you to remember.
As I drive...
How the girls can turn to ghosts before your eyes,
And the very dreams that led to them are keeping them from dying.
And how the grace with which she walked into your life,
Will stay with you in your steps, and pace with you a while.
For so long, so long.
So long, so long.
The speaker in this door is blown,
So nothin' sounds quite right.
Takin' my time, takin' this drive, wavin' this town goodbye.
I drive this ocean road and remember,
The small of your back,
The nape of your neck.
I remember everything as I drive,
Wavin' this town goodbye.
How the girls can turn to ghosts before your eyes,
And the very dreams that led to them are keeping them from dying.
And how the grace with which she walked into your life,
Will stay with you in your steps, and pace with you a while.
For so long, so long, so long, so long, so long, so long.
So long, so long.
So long, so long. (Takin' my time, takin' this drive,)
So long, so long. (Wavin' this town goodbye.)
So long, so long.
So long, so long.
So long, so long.
And I will leave under the cover,
Of summer's kiss upon the sky.
Like the stone face of your lover,
Just before she says goodbye.
I was certain that the season could be held between my arms,
But just as summer's hold is fleeting.
I was here but now,
I'm gone. (So long, so long.)
I'm gone. (So long, so long.)
I'm gone, I'm gone. (So long, so long.)
I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone. (So long, so long.)
I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone. (So long, so long.)
