Only the other side of fall. Oh, if 1 could have I’d have made you a sunny sky. Hello’s the word before good-bye. Sometimes it rains, sometimes it shines yet the things I want are seldom mine. How much of summer can we hold before we turn and find we’re old? The things our mirrors tell us are all lies Hello’s the word before good-bye. Sometimes it’s dark, sometimes it’s fair yet when I go home at night nobody’s there. Perhaps the next wind that blows in will bring you back to me again. Till then remembering just makes me want to cry, Hello’s the word before good-bye. Sometimes you lose, sometimes you win yet I can’t forget what might have been.
