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
