So Long

So Long - Maya Hawke

I cannot hide my cards dear

Can't even keep them close

I've seen how swiftly thoughts can

Collect into ghosts

When you should fear them most

I am not a coward

I am just afraid

Of how our new tomorrow

Will turn to yesterday

So long so long

You know I understand

So long so long

I'll see you when I can

When I can

Well you and I spoke last night

As I lay next to him

You told me if you followed

Every paper whim

You'd be wearing thin

I woke up with a longing

For just that mistake

Your ghost was calling

And I was just beyond the break

So long so long

You know I understand

So long so long

I'll see you when I can

When I can

I'd like to tell you now dear

To pry open the door

How to appeal to your body

To take me on the floor

Ask a ghost for more

The glorious will always

Be just around the bend

But I can't ask to borrow

What I can't bare to lend

So long so long

You know I understand

So long so long

I'll see you when I can

When I can
