Hello Goodbye,

Hello Goodbye,
It's been awhile since I noticed you around.
I heard you were in town, but wasn't sure that I'd get to see you.
Until today, as I was leaving, there you were, all of a sudden.
That's when I remembered how much I hadn't missed you at all.
But I realized, that I'd been waiting for your call.
Seeing you like that, brought so much back.
It was good, in it's way, you put everything away... into it's right place.
Oh, how I hate you, goodbye.
I just can't lie.
You make me want to stay, when I must go.
And you make it so hard to say so.

-Matt

So Long, Farewell.

There's a sad sort of clanging from the clock in the hall
And the bells in the steeple too
And up in the nursery an absurd little bird
Is popping out to say "cuckoo"
Cuckoo, cuckoo

Regretfully they tell us
But firmly they compel us
To say goodbye . . .
to you...

So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, good night
I hate to go and leave this pretty sight
So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, adieu
Adieu, adieu, to yieu and yieu and yieu

So long, farewell, au revoir, auf wiedersehen
I'd like to stay and taste my first champagne
So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye
I leave and heave a sigh and say goodbye -- Goodbye!
I'm glad to go, I cannot tell a lie
I flit, I float, I fleetly flee, I fly
The sun has gone to bed and so must I
So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye!
