So Long

Hand out the window Floatin' on air Just a flip of the wrist I'd be wavin' you goodbye Drive past the lifeguard stand Where I'd sit around waiting for you to remember As I drive How the girls could 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 And stayed with you in your steps, pace with you a while For so long, so long So long so long The speaker in this door is blown So nothing sounds quite right Takin' my time, takin' this drive Away from this town, goodbye And I drive this ocean road And I remember The small of your back And 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 So long, so long, so long, so long sl sl sl sl sl sl sl sl sl sl sl Takin' my time, takin' this drive Wavin' this town so long, so long (Interlude of da da dums) And I will leave under the cover 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 I'm gone (interlude of da da dums)
