So Long - Lyrics - Fifth Angel

Fifth Angel was formed in the suburbs of Seattle in 1983, specifically, in the Bellevue area. The band's initial lineup consisted of Ted Pilot , James Byrd , Ed Archer , Ken Mary and Kenny Kay . This line up went into Steve Lawson Productions studio in late 1983 with Terry Date as producer engineer and recorded a four song demo that consisted of "Fade to Flames", "Fifth Angel", "In the Fallout", and "Wings of Destiny". Shrapnel Records signed them in 1985 and financed the recording of five more songs to complete a self titled album that eventually appeared in 1986.

Many years of my life I have been in search of, Someone to shelter from the cold. I may be a fool, standing waiting here forever, In those quiet eyes I know - That' it's - So long I've been left too far behind So long to me. Cause it's - So long that I've almost lost my mind So long to me - I'm so tired of tryin' There are those who stop and tell me who I'm best for, And that love will pass me by. But they'll fade away, and I continue searching, All my life - That' it's - So long I've been left too far behind So long to me. Cause it's - So long that I've almost lost my mind So long to me...ahhhhh ohhhhhh... [Guitar solo] And it's - So long I've been left too far behind So long to me. Cause it's - So long that I've almost lost my mind So long to me - ' So long, So long, So long to me. So long, So long, So long to me. [Outro guitar solo] So long. So long, So long to me.
