The Summer Kid (So Long And Thanks For Being You)
Sit tight, secrets collide with the most clever lies
We were dreamers, you and I
But these old walls don’t hum like they used to
I can hear them whisper softly through the cracks
“Run while you still can”
Remind me what it’s like to love you
Who’s going to pick up the pieces when you scatter them on the ground
A crying wolf, crying wolf
I can’t say I even know who you are
But you know, I know you know
Keep me here, waiting, I’ve got all the time in the world
But a world that’s not yours, and I just can’t be sure
Who’s to blame for these consequences
We can trace it back to the center of your plastic heart
a love for longing, a desire to keep them twirling in your orbit
Closer and closer, until you can see my face
Then you’ll watch me as I float off into space
So I guess this is goodbye, as you slowly fade out of view
So long, and thanks for being you
