HELLO GOODBYE

Somebody made you a promise

But somebody told you a lie

From the moment you said your first hello
Till you finally caught the gleam in their e,

Nobody wanted to hurt you

But it really only goes to show
Somebody's always breakin’ your heart
And round and round it goes

Somebody knows how to get to you
Somebody knows how to make you
You can build a wall right up to the si
But you'll never be able to hide
From hello goodbye

Why oh why do you make your love
So easy to give away?

Haven't you learned that your broken heart
Is too high a price to pay?

You keep wonderin’ why it is

You ended up wounded every time you fall
Maybe it's ‘cause you treat your love

Like it's worth nothing at all?

It's always been a long way down
From the heights of love in the sky
Hello goodbye always clips your wings
Just when you've started to fly

But like a bad penny you keep turnin’ up
Searchin’ for what can't be found
Running right out of brass ring chances
On this crazy merry-go-round.

Me
