Lyrics

So Long

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Don't take much looking back to know I took my coffee black then

Nothings different now but nothing seems the same and it's

alright

Your optimistic views your hundred dollar running shoes and

Carpel tunnel syndrome we all had a laugh about it

I'd love to stick around but I gotta tell you all

So long

But I didn't wanna tell you all so long

Don't take much looking back to know I faked that heart attack

then

And nothings different now but nothing seems the same and it's

alright

You always spoke the truth from circa disco abba boots and

All that showbiz talk we all had a laugh about it

I'd love to stick around but I gotta tell you all

So long

But I didn't wanna tell you all so long

I gotta get back to where I belong

So long

But I didn't wanna tell you all so long
