Hand out the window
Floating on air
Just a flip of the wrist
And I am waving you goodbye

Drive past the lifeguard stand
Where I sit around waiting for you to remember
As I drive

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

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
And the nape of your neck
I remember everything as I drive, waving this town goodbye

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 with you in your steps
Pace with you a while
So long, so long
So long, so long
So long, so long

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
And I was certain that the season could be held between my arms
Well just as summer's hold is fleeting
I was here but now I'm gone
I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone
I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone
I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone
