So Long

sitting in your sister's volvo
in the parking lot
of a chinese restaurant
in salem, new hampshire

listening to elliot smith
on compact disks
his third album sounds
pretty good, mhmm

all i want, at least right now
is to be close to you
the smell of your hair
is literally amazing, honestly

this is like one of those awesome dreams
where you get to hang out with the guys from fugazi
and you're so frustrated and angry,
that it was just a dream

but this is not goodbye,
this is just goodnight
you're back to massachusetts
but i'm to the north
i'll see you in six or seven days, go.

the best thing in the world
is to love someone
and they love you back.
