So Long

    Artist: Leon Bridges

    So long, so long

    So long, so long

    See it in your eyes

    (There’s been a change)

    I feel distant

    There’s been a change

    A fear hangs over my head

    I search for peace

    In the midst of it all

    What we had in those old photographs

    So far gone, I gotta move on

    [Verse 2]

    So long, so long

    See it in your eyes

    (There’s been a change)

    I feel distant

    There’s been a change

    A fear, whoa oh, hangs from my head

    It’s so far gone, I gotta move on

    [Verse 3]

    So long, so long

    So long, so long

    See it in your eyes

    (There’s been a change)

    I feel distant

    There’s been a change ...

    Background

    On his debut album “Coming Home,” Leon Bridges sounded like the second coming of Sam Cooke. During the course of the year, the young singer from Fort Worth, Texas, the United States, has staked out his own identity as the new voice of gospel and soul music. He ended his year with a feature on an emotional new Macklemore single, his “Saturday Night Live” debut and a Grammy nomination for Best R&B Album. To top it all off, Bridges has contributed a gorgeous new ballad, “So Long,” to the soundtrack for the new Will Smith film, “Concussion,” out Christmas Day.
