[Verse] Sunset bleeds through the porch light glow, Swinging slow on this old wooden row. Last breath of summer, warm but thin, Your shadow fades where the fireflies begin. [Pre-Chorus] I reach for your hand, but the air’s too cold, Like a train that’s long gone, never told. [Chorus] Oh, it’s a long goodbye, on this creakin’ swing, Where the leaves fall silent and the world takes wing. You’re gone like the heat, I can’t hold on tight, Just you and me in the fade of the night. Long goodbye, yeah, long goodbye, Every mile feels like you’re walkin’ by. [Verse] Your favorite song plays on the dusty radio, A melody I knew but never knew how to know. The screen door sighs, no one’s comin’ in, And I’m left with ghosts in the quiet again. [Pre-Chorus] I whisper your name, but the night don’t reply, Just the wind hummin’ low like a lullaby. [Chorus] Oh, it’s a long goodbye, on this creakin’ swing, Where the leaves fall silent and the world takes wing. You’re gone like the heat, I can’t hold on tight, Just you and me in the fade of the night. Long goodbye, yeah, long goodbye, Every mile feels like you’re walkin’ by. [Bridge] If time could turn back, I’d let you stay, But your heart’s already on a different way. This porch will wait, but the seasons move— I know you're gone, and I can’t prove. [Chorus] Oh, it’s a long goodbye, on this creakin’ swing, Where the leaves fall silent and the world takes wing. You’re gone like the heat, I can’t hold on tight, Just you and me in the fade of the night. Long goodbye, yeah, long goodbye, Every mile feels like you’re walkin’ by. [Outro] Long goodbye… Creakin’ swing… No one’s comin’ back… Just the dark… and me… Long goodbye…
