This is goodbye
It’s been swell staying
Adieu, adieu
Down in pages you belong
No more driveway parties
Or lawnchairs in the sun
Your BBQ’s were always so much fun
Smell of chlorine
Missing front teeth
Those days in Serrano seemed like eons ago
The gate at the end of the cul de sac
Was the entrance to our secrets
At high noon we’d race
At dusk we hid
On weekdays I missed you
And in ‘95 you went away
Sunny days, hot seats
Sleepy rides, warm breeze
Burnt skin, red eyes
Well-read lullabies
Greetings from San Diego
I’ll be here for 5 more years
So this is goodbye
It’s been swell making
Memories with you
Sunny days, hot seats
Sleepy rides, warm breeze
Burnt skin, red eyes
Well-read lullabies
