For Now, So Long (1954) - ''Gatemouth'' Brown, Brown

Good-bye, I hope we meet again

Good-bye, wish that I could tell you when

So long, so long, for now so long

I pray, I’ll return to you some day

You pray, that it would just be as well

So long, so long, for now so long

Someday, I’ll return to be with you

'Til then, darling', be true

And pray, to the god above

To please take care, take care of your love

Oh baby, I hate to leave you now

But darlin', don’t forget your vow

So long, so long, for now so long
