“So Long!”

You saw what I am saying, that is

Why this is playing on your mind

And you know, there’s nothing I’d rather say to you

I’m just a little bit surprised

We’ve come so far, together and for the better

It’s like our wetter weather’s dry

It stares me in the face, it taps you on the shoulder

They’ll hear us singing, you and I

But goodbye, goodbye now

When you leave please try to see me somehow

And so long my friend

And I’ll wait to say hello to you again

We move on like in a pantomime

Or in a summer sky so gold

And birds will always fly, whether or not it’s golden

Just as long as they get home

I’m telling you, I would find any color

Just to stop you going blind

And you told me, I would still love you brother

Even with so much left to hide

But if you fall, you’re falling

And in your dreams, you’ll still hear me calling

And do you mind? Are you minding?

Everything that you have been hiding?

Goodbye, goodbye now

When you leave please try to see me somehow

And so long my friend

And I’ll wait to say hello to you again

Goodbye, goodbye now

When you leave please try to see me somehow

And so long my friend

And I’ll wait to say hello to you again
