lyrics

In youth, we promised ourselves
This love would not be outgrown
But I hide myself so well
As the years have certainly shown

This mountain, we vowed to climb
Foreboding and treacherous
You scaled and I stayed behind
To settle with the dust

Now you say
"So long" from on high
Up there, above the crowd
Your future is taking flight
You ought to be so proud

Given time, your dreams arrive
A reward for your endless work
I knew you would be recognized
I knew you'd get what you have earned

Now you say
"So long" from on high
Up there, above the crowd
Your future is clear and bright
You ought to be so proud

By now, I'm the tiniest speck
In the rearview, as you stare ahead
No disquiet or regrets
About the path you have chosen to tread

Now you say
"So long" from on high
Up there above the crowd
Your future is clear and bright
You ought to be so proud
Yes, I'm glad you never lost sight
Nothing can stop you now
But we had such a good time
I wish you could just come down
For a while.
