So Long Lyrics

I believe in essentials every New Year's eve
Try to dust myself off but it won't last the year
When you fill my glass
And asked me if I could be so kind to pour my mind
Did you think I was raving
'Cause I was already out there losing ground
If I gave up my fortune
Would you surrender your emptiness?
We could all disappear and leave this town behind

And if I had to go without you
Then I would write you, girl
I would never really understand your fighting or denying
You're still thinking about yesterdays
Or maybe where to place the blame
And you're stuck for so long, for so long
You were barely holding on

You were never decisive
So I'll keep asking you this all of the time
Will you join me in Stockholm?
I think misery sure would love some company tonight
Don't you think you'd feel better
If you could criticize me without all of those miles
Between your heart and mind
Feels like we're doing time on our own

And if I had to go without you
Then I would write you, girl
I would never understand your fighting or denying
You're still thinking about yesterdays
And even things you should've said
And you're stuck for so long, for so long
You were barely holding on, for so long, for so long
You were barely holding on

If you need me to supply a reason
Just touch yourself in a mirror without aching
And then tremble your way to the next heartache
Or you can leave all that stuff behind
And if it's alright, we will pour our minds again tonight

And if I had to go without you
Then I would write you, girl
I would never really understand your fighting or denying
You're still thinking about yesterdays
Or maybe where to place the blame
And you're stuck for so long, for so long
You were barely holding on
For so long, for so long, and I ain't coming home
So long, so long, you were barely holding on
So long, so long, yeah
