Intro

Verse 1

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 sit around waiting for you to remember

As I drive

Chorus

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

Will stay with you in your steps

And pace with you a while

So long, so long

So long, so long

Verse 2

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

Chorus

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

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, waving this town goodbye

So long, so long

So long, so long

Bridge

And I will leave under the cover

Of summer's kiss upon the sky

Like the storm 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 and now I'm gone
