Is there someone you know– You’re loving them so, But taking them all for granted? You may lose them someday, Someone takes them away And they don’t hear the words you long to say: I would give anything I own Give up my life, my heart, my home, I would give everything I own Just to see you once again, Just to hold you once again. ---

You say “Yes”, I say “No”. You say “Stop” and I say “Go, go, go”. Oh no. You say “Goodbye” and I say “Hello, hello, hello”. I don’t know why you say “Goodbye”, I say “Hello, hello, hello”. I don’t know why you say goodbye, I say hello. ---

Hello, hello, hello… what a wonderful word, hello. Hello, hello, hello… you can hear it wherever you go. A stranger in a strange place can’t be nearer, but when you hear the hello song it’s dearer. Hello, hello, hello… what a wonderful word - hello! ---

True, there was a woman Yes, she did advance my way And I can’t be sure exactly but I swear I saw her say my name It was the right time She was the real thing I had to walk away (See) Don’t wanna be, stitched up out of my mind Feeling strung out, laggin’ behind All trapped in, can’t do a thing because I’m Locked down Stitched up, feeling the burn All strung out, I finally learn that Trapped in, can’t do a thing because I’m Locked down I wonder where she came from I wonder where she’s gotta go Who’s to say she’s single And who’s to say she’s on her own Girls like that don’t sleep alone (Alright here’s the thing, here’s the thing) That girl is flawless, and I know I’m not the first one to think that And since I’m not the first, I sure won’t be the last I’d spend my whole life looking behind my back I just don’t think I’m up to that ---

And you quickly turn away your wishful stare And take a sudden interest in your shoes. If you only had the courage… but you don’t. She turns and leaves, and you both lose. And you think about the people that you never get to love It’s not as if you even have the chance. So many worth a second life But rarely do you get a second glance Until fate cuts in on your dance And you’ll see her on a train that you’ve just missed, At a bus stop where your bus will never stop, Or in a passing Buick, when you’ve been pulled over by a traffic cop Or you’ll share an elevator, just you two And you’ll rise in total silence to the floor. Like the fool you are, you get off, And she leaves your life behind a closing door And you think about the people that you never get to love, The poem you intended to begin. The saddest words that anyone has ever said are ‘Lord, what might have been’ But no one said you get to win. ---

I saw an angel. Of that I’m sure. She smiled at me on the subway. She was with another man. But I won’t lose no sleep on that, 'Cause I’ve got a plan. You’re beautiful. You’re beautiful. You’re beautiful, it’s true. I saw your face in a crowded place, And I don’t know what to do, 'Cause I’ll never be with you. ---
