Aretha Franklin So Long song lyrics

So long I hope we'll meet again

One day

And I'm hoping maybe then you'll say

Darling I found out I was wrong

So long

You leave me here to cry

It will never be goodbye

Because you been mine so long

All alone

With my memories of you

I can dream that you're lonely like me too

You're my home

Even though we're far apart

I'm gonna keep you in my heart

So long, so long baby

Gee, I really hate to see you go

Because you are all and everything in my world and you know

That you been mine all mine so long

But baby I gotta say so long
