So Long

Rilo Kiley

Watch me fly away 
Through the night sky yeah 
Now that all you touched 
Has finally turned gray 

And roads can't hold us down 
Winds will move us around 
With no need to return 
To this gray town 

Want to bet I can tell 
You've been in bed for too long 
So let's just say so long 
And I watched you at the cove 

You read on rocks below 
And I turned home 
Without so much as hello 
Want to know where I go 

I've been away for too long 
And it's hard to leave 
When I haven't seen 
You in so long 

And if we had just 
Held out for tomorrow 
We might have seen 
What seemed so far away 

We didn't even bother to stay 
There it goes I can tell 
You're gonna to keep 
Your eyes to the ground 

Waiting for something 
To finally come around 
Tell you that you knew 
That you weren't wrong 

And it's finally time for so long
