So long, hope we'll meet again one day
I'm hopin' maybe then you'll say
Darlin' - I was wrong
So long, so long, so long
Gee, I hate to see you go - umm..
You're really the world to me, you know
You, you just stay so long
All alone, with my memories of you
And I can see that your lonely too
You're my own, even though we're far apart
But I'll keep you right here in my heart
So long, so long, so long, so long
Though you leave me hear to cry - huh..
Or could it, could it, could it, could it be - goodbye
Don't you know that you've been mine so long
Yes I'm alone, with my memories of you
Yes, I can dream, dream, dream, that you're lonely too
You're my own, even though we're far apart
Well I'll keep you right here in my heart
So long, so long, so long
Though you leave me hear to cry - huh..
Well this could never, never, never mean goodbye
Darlin' you, you just stay -- so long.....
