So Long Lyrics

[VERSE 1]
Next to the board games and the basketball trophies
There sits an old bear with just one marble eye
He doesn't do much except gather some dust
As he waits for the boy to come play
But he just passes by
Must have somewhere that he's going
A new (?) that he's holding
He looks at the bear as he leaves, and he smiles and he says

[Chorus]
I'll be back home one day, before long
So take care my old bear
Thank you and so long
So long
So long

[VERSE 2]
The boy went to college and made some new friends
They comfortably spent the next four years together Laughing at all of the trouble outside
They all tried to hide but they knew that no smile lasts forever
They scattered like leaves come november
Still they would always remember
The last perfect night when they raised their glasses and said

[Chorus]
I'll see you again one day, before long
So take care my old friends
Thank you and so long
So long

[BRIDGE]
And if it's true that I (?)
(?)
To want to stay behind
So long

[Chorus]
I'll see you again, one day before long
So take care my old friends
Thank you and so long
So long
