"So Long, So Long" lyrics Dashboard Confessional Lyrics "So Long, So Long"
Hand out the window
Floating on air
Just a flip of the wrist
And I'm waving you goodbye
Drive past the lifeguard stand
Where I'd sit around
Waiting 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 nothing sounds quite right
Taking my time, taking this drive
Waving this town, goodbye
And I drive this ocean road and remember
The small of your back, nape of your neck
I remember everything as I drive
Waving 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
So long, so long, so long, so long
(Taking my time, taking this drive)
So long, so long
(Waving 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
And 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)
And I'm gone
(So long, so long)
I'm gone, I'm gone
(So long, so long)
I'm gone, I'm gone
(So long, so long)
I'm gone, I'm gone
(So long, so long)
I'm gone, I'm gone
(So long, so long)
I'm gone, I'm gone
(So long, so long)
