So Long

I cannot hide my cards dear
 Can't even keep them close
 I've seen how quickly thoughts can
 Collect into ghosts
 When you should fear them most
 I am not a coward
 I am just afraid
 Of how our new tomorrow
 Will turn to yesterday
 So long, so long
 You know I understand
 So long, so long
 I'll see you when I can
 When I can
 Well, you and I spoke last night
 As I lay next to him
 You told me if you followed
 Every paper whim
 You'd be wearing thin
 I woke up with a longing
 For just that mistake
 Your ghost was calling
 I was just beyond the break
 So long, so long
 You know I understand
 So long, so long
 I'll see you when I can
 When I can

 I'd like to tell you now, dear
 To pry open the door
 How to appeal to your body
 To take me on the floor
 Ask a ghost for more
 The glorious will always
 Be just around the bend
 But I can't ask to borrow
 What I can't bare to lend
 So long, so long
 You know I understand
 So long, so long
 I'll see you when I can
 When I can
