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)
