[Verse 1] The sun on the hills Your car rounds the bend The tail-lights fade The evening descends I'll keep on waving Til I'm sure you're gone Til I'm sure that I was The last thing you saw (chorus) So long, bye-bye So long, so long Be brave, be strong Until then, so long (Verse 2) The water recedes, I'm on my own Pictures of you, pictures of home Somebody leaves, someone arrives Something is gone, and I'm still alive I don't understand, got no idea why But no God I know would say not to try So I'll keep on waving Til I'm sure you're gone Til I'm sure that I was The last thing you saw (chorus) So long, bye-bye So long, so long Be brave, be strong Until then... So long, bye-bye So long, so long Be brave, be strong Until then, until then, until then... So long
