Lyrics So Long, So Long (Unreleased Version)

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.
Well past the beach hotels,
Where the girls are getting' bronzed on their monogrammed towels.

I drive this ocean road,
And remember,

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 stay 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.
And I drive this ocean road,
And I remember,
The small of your back,
And the nape of your neck,
And the soft way you'd hold me in the night.

I remember.

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 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.

(Interlude of da da dum,)

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.
I was thinkin' 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.
