Hello of Goodbye

Is it hello?
Is it hello or goodbye?
Which one am I to say?
I don't wanna be fooled
into falling in love with you.
Will you stay for a while?
It seems like we were just getting to
know one another so well,
but oh well.
Hello always means goodbye so babe,
I won't stop telling you everyday
how much I need you around.
I know you're up in the sky, but I don't know
when you'll be back down.
I wake up looking for you,
but I guess it depends on the day.
Hello, goodbye.
Just tell me which one to say.
My mother's voice was soft rain,
and my daddy's was more like a hurricane saying, "Son you better learn to pray".
I'm like, "the sun better learn to shine,
I'm feeling blind,
cause I've been gone for a while,"
and my daughter's days have been
blue and gray.
I can see the same story in her eyes saying,
"Won't stop telling you everyday how much
I need you around. I know you're up in the sky, but I don't know when you'll be back down. I wake up looking for you but I guess it depends on the day.
Baby hello, goodbye.
Just tell me which one to say."
Won't stop telling you everyday how much
I need you around.
I know you're up in the sky, but I don't know when you'll be back down.
I wake up looking for you but I guess it depends on the day.
So hello, goodbye.
Just tell me you're here to stay.
