Hey there stranger, how you bin' Feels like I'm standing on the outside looking in At the mess we left behind And it's a long way to fall I gave you everything I had I gave it all And then my heart was on the line I can't hate you Any longer I know I'm going to miss you I'll forget it and let it go. Say hello to goodbye, 'cause its gone forever No more try, you and I Not now, not ever And I get by without you I'm not going back again I'm not going to lie to you 'Cause, that was there and only then. Say hello to goodbye Say hello And this is how it has to be 'Cause its a deadly combination, you and me You know its undeniable Even though we tried it all We brought the worst out in each other I recall We can't act it anymore What doesn't kill you It makes you stronger And though I'm going to miss you I'll forget it and let it go Say hello to good-bye Its gone forever No more try, you and I Not now, not ever And I get by without you I'm not going back again I'm not going to lie to you 'Cause, that was there and only then. Say hello to goodbye Say hello And even though the tears will dry I can't completely disconnect Couldn't make the compromise Didn't have a safety net Say hello to goodbye Heeey ya ya Say hello, goodbye Say hello to good-bye Its gone forever No more try, you and I Not now, not ever And I'll survive without you I'm not going back again I'm not going to lie to you 'Cause, that was there and only then. Say hello, to goodbye Say hello, to goodbye Say hello, hello To goodbye.
