Hello

You're saying hello

Like it means goodbye



If I could listen to the words that you say

I could hold on for awhile

I could go on, baby, fooling myself

I could even manage a smile



But believing isn't easy to do

When your words just don't ring true

And I know that slowly but surely

I'm losing you



Though it sounds like you're saying hello

With every word that you say, I want to cry

Yes it sounds like you're saying hello

But it feels like you mean goodbye

Like it means goodbye



Oh, I don't know if I heard it in the tone of your voice

Or saw it hidden deep in your eyes

But you could say you love me

And then leave me in the morning

And you know, I wouldn't be surprised



Yes, I've known you much too long

Not to feel when something is wrong

And when the words and the music aren't right

It's not the same song



And yes, it sounds like you're saying hello

With every word that you say, I want to cry

Cause it sounds like you're saying hello

But it feels like you mean goodbye



Yes, I've known you much too long

Not to feel when something is wrong

And when the words and the music aren't right

It's not the same song



And though it sounds like you're saying hello

With every word that you say, I want to cry

Cause it sounds like you're saying hello

But it feels like you mean (goodbye)
