Shontelle - Say Hello to Goodbye lyrics

Hey there, stranger how you been?
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 gonna miss you
I'll forget it and let it go

Say hello to goodbye
'Cause it's gone forever
No more try, you and I not now, not ever
And I'll get by without you
I'm not going back again
I'm not gonna 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 it's a deadly combination, you and me
You know it's 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 gonna miss you
I'll forget it and let you go

Say hello to goodbye
'Cause it's gone forever
No more try, you and I not now, not ever
And I'll get by without you
I'm not going back again
I'm not gonna 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
We didn't have a safety net

Say hello to goodbye hey, yeah, yeah
Say hello, goodbye say hello to goodbye
It's 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 gonna lie to you
'Cause that was there and only then

Say hello to goodbye say hello to goodbye
Say hello, hello to goodbye
