So Long

So long—
Why’re you going away for so long?
Why don’t you just stay where you belong?
And then we'd never have to say “so long”

So long—
The days while you’re away feel so long
I’m wasting away while you are gone
I wish we'd never had to say “so long”

So wrong—
You know it always feels so wrong
To say goodbye to you
For so long
What kind of universe would keep me away
From someone that I have loved

For so long?
The years, they’re slipping by me and I’m still
So alone
The nights that I have cried here sitting
Solo

Oh, I don’t know how to say goodbye
So I’ll just say:
So long
