So Long (also known as "Look In The Mirror" and "I'll Run Away") is a partially solved Lostwave, which originates from the 1987 film Com'è dura l'avventura and was written by Lanfranco Perini, but the singer is unknown.
Background[edit | edit source]
On April 3rd, 2017, the song was first posted by YouTube user My Mixed Salad, who provided no information about where he got the song.[1]
On March 16th, 2024, on a reupload of the song by user Balek's Trash, a user named celestinocamicia discovered that the song was featured in the Italian film Com'è dura l'avventura from 1987, during a montage sequence showing a character's ugly daughter getting a makeover.[2][3]
Lanfranco Perini, the film's music director, has a song credited to him in the SIAE Italian songwriters database called Look in the Mirror, which is most likely the song's title, but no musicians are credited.[2][4]

| Presumed Lyrics |
| (Verse 1)
I'll look in the mirror Look in my eyes I've been hiding it for so long All we can tell me, all by your side And don’t believe (money’s lies?) They speak with their eyes, babe Be satisfied I've been hiding it for so long Can you believe me, How would you know And don't (bug me, honeypie?) (Chorus) I'll run away I want to be a beautiful girl I'll run away I want to be a beautiful star (Verse 2) I still remember, (something alive?) I'd be why you love what you say I'll look in that mirror Look in my eyes And don't (bug me, honeypie?) (Chorus) I'll run away I want to be a beautiful star |
