Hello, My Lover, Goodbye - Doris Day

Love is a legend grown dimmer and dimmer

There’s nothing left but the tiniest glimmer of hope

Where is the one who will make my life sunlit

Where is the kiss that will mean more

than one little flame Standing out in shame

As I have romed around, I’ve always found

That love will come and love will die

It’s always hello, my lover, goodbye

There often came a night that brought delight

But ended with a lonely cry

It’s always hello, my lover, goodbye

I would be clay within love’s hands

I would obey all love’s commands

Yet, like the ever shifting sands

I drift away

I only hope to find some peace of mind

And put an end to wond’ring why

It’s always hello, my lover, goodbye

I would be clay within love’s hands

I would obey all love’s commands

Yet, like the ever shifting sands

I drift away

I only hope to find some peace of mind

And put an end to wond’ring why

It’s always hello, my lover, goodbye
