So Long Lyrics by On Planets

2021

[Verse 1]
From a tangle of intention, decision and dead branches
I did my best but couldn’t pull out any answers
Was living in the lurch behind this fear of going backwards
To close another chapter

So standing on the pier at the shore of all I’ve done
Nothing left except to wait and hope the tide would come up
Isn’t it a shame how much I’ve left up on the dock?
In the name of moving on
I cut the ropes and cast off

[Pre-Chorus]
I know, I know
You’ve been swimming so slow
And there’s a light on the horizon
So long, so long
Hope you make it back home
Don’t lose sight of whеre you started from

[Chorus]
I know, I know
You’ve been swimming so slow
Thеre’s a light on the horizon (Light on the horizon)
So long, so long
Hope you make it back home
Don’t lose sight of where you started from

[Post-Chorus]
Don’t lose sight of where you started from, mhm

[Verse 2]
In the haze of aimless rest, with the crutch of coming last
I caved and craned my neck as a year went floating past
Crawled out to the edge, it was time to leave the raft
Forever on a crest, on a wave that couldn’t crash

Had a hard time coming back, forgot the taste of salt
I was grasping at a chance when I got dashed upon the rocks
And I’d been casting seams across the bricks in my façade
Cracked up, smiling at the tideline
Washed up back where I belong

[Pre-Chorus]
I know, I know
You’ve been swimming so slow
There’s a light on the horizon
So long, so long
Hope you make it back home
Don’t lose sight of where you started from

[Chorus]
I know, I know
You’ve been swimming so slow
There’s a light on the horizon (Light on the horizon)
So long, so long
Hope you make it back home
Don’t lose sight of where you started from, mhm

I know, I know (I know, I know)
There’s a light on the horizon (Light on the horizon)
So long, so long (So long, so long)
Don’t lose sight of where you started from

[Post-Chorus]
Don’t lose sight of where you started from
