So Long - Maya Hawke

I cannot hide my cards, dear

Can’t even keep them close

I’ve seen how quickly 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

You and I spoke last night

As I lay next to him

You told me if you fallowed

Every paper whim

You’d be wearing thin

I woke up with a longing

For just that mistake

Your ghost was calling

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

To appeal to your body

To take me o the floor

To ask a ghost for me

The glorious will always

Be just around the bend

But I can’t ask to barrow

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
