"So Long, So Long" 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)

A smile of joy arrives in me
But sedation changes to panic and nausea
And breath starts to shorten
And heartbeats pound softer
You won't try to save me!

Taking Back Sunday - "Sink Into Me" Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

And then begin to breathe in
The darkest country road
And the strong scent of evergreen
From the passenger seat as you are driving me home.
Then looking upwards

Jack's Mannequin - "The Mixed Tape" This is morning
That's when I spend the most time
Thinking 'bout what I've given up
This is a warning
When you start the day just to close the curtains
You're thinking 'bout what I've given up...

My eyes don’t move a blink
Cause it’s easier sometimes
Not to be sincere
Somehow I make you believe
