I Say So Long

I was lost but refused to be found
It's time that I got my feet back on the ground
I've no business here with nothing to spend
So I sit here awaiting my slow-coming end

I heard there's a place out far in the west
There's no one to chat with but somewhere to rest
I've been out of my head for weeks I can't count
These oncoming problems I must surmount

I come from the places that you have never seen
I've searched far and wide for someone who feels love for me
Akin to love the sky feels for the sea

You call for a battle that I cannot fight
I'm surprised that my fortress has held up the night
I can no longer feel a girl's warm embrace
For the guiltiness has put me back in my place

If you are to him as green is to leaves
Then I am to you as fire is to trees
The oncoming death of my kin to the south
No words of their fortune will come from my mouth

I strum my guitar it refuses to sing
Useless to me like a birds broken wing
I can no longer wait for the cool rains of spring

I tried my best but it will not do
For what I have done nobody knew
My solitude of mind is what makes me go on
And if you are leaving then I say so long
And if you are leaving then I say so long
