Dennis DeYoung - Hello Goodbye

Two nine back in sixty four
I watched it all from my front room door
In the winter of our discontent
Four lads sounding heaven sent

Singin' yeah, yeah
The girls were a-shriekin'
Yeah, yeah, yeah
We was eight days a-weekin'
Ooh ooh
Singing yeah, yeah
It was all so excitin'
Yeah, yeah, yeah
We was Hard Days a Nightin'
Ooh ooh

We bought tickets to ride down to strawberry fields
On a Magical Bus where nothing was real
And we learned every note every word every song
As John and I sang along
As John and I sang along

Hello goodbye
Hello goodbye
Hello goodbye

So the whole world formed a band
And played a million one night stands
Down the road towards Penny Lane
Hey Jude was our refrain

And they played on
The world was explodin'
They played on
Bare foot Abbey Roadin'
Ooh ooh

And we knew in a flash they were second to none
Round the moon and the stars, we'd follow the sun
From Rome to Hague to a Norwegian night
A jukebox satellite

Hello goodbye
Hello goodbye
Hello goodbye

Then later that night
With Mr. Moonlight
Outside the high school dance
There was magic in the air
When I saw her standing there
Man it was true romance

And it was all right
They played Revolution
Yeah alright
It was the grandest illusion
Ooh like Little Richard said ooh

And they came and they went in a blink of an eye
Like the title they wrote hello and goodbye
Those days may be lost but never those songs
When the whole world sang along beep beep

Hello goodbye
Hello goodbye
Hello goodbye

Hello goodbye, hello goodbye, hello (goodbye)
