"Dude, I can say for sure that I'll be missing your smile"

"And I can say for sure that we will do it all again some time"

"But dude as the escalator carries you away

and I watch you wave I know something mighty ended here today"

"You know I'll never know anyone

Who can shed the same light

Talk me blind through the night

You know we never lost sight

Until reality struck at four in the morning

We never knew how our future was forming

Stuck in my seat

And you were swift on your feet

But for now you would stay

And we continued to talk till five in morning

All the other kids they thought we were boring You're zooming away

Into the day

And you're leaving me behind

Still see you waving in my mind

Still see you waving in my mind

Still see you waving in my mind

"Dude, the summer's still a newborn, and I'm here for a while

And we can go swimming, Solid-Snake the days away inside"

"But Dude, the pizza place, the practice space are gone

This dreadful town is dying, it’s no use that we keep dragging on"

"And you can never tell anyone

But when you went away

Last spring, and I stayed

I was counting the days"

And then my allergy struck at six in the morning

And red-eyed I looked straight at dawning

You were still here

And it was made clear

That for now you would stay

But by the start of next week at nine in the morning You’ll take a train and you’ll start your explorings And I will stay here for another numb year

And you're leaving me behind

Still see you waving in my mind

Still see you waving in my mind

Still see you waving in my mind

Still see you waving in my mind

Still see you waving in my mind

Still see you waving in my mind

Still see you waving in my mind

Still see you waving in my mind

Still see you waving in my mind

Still see you waving in my mind

Still see you waving in my mind

Still see you waving in my mind
