The Sweet Hello, the Sad GoodbyeLaura Branigan

Released: August 17, 1993

Songwriter: Per Gessle

Producer: Phil Ramone

Red like fire was the day I met you
I tell you now, there are no regrets
In this room, there are many memories
Some are good, some I try to forget

I thought we were the chosen ones
Who were supposed to fly
We're very much the same, you and I
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye
Still waiting to get hurt, time after time
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye
When love lies in our hands
We seem to run and hide
And I can't help but wonder why
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye

My heart was like a runaway train, babe
I don't believe I've ever felt more alive
In this room, I hear voices linger
We never talked about our pride

You know you're not the only one who knows how to cry
We're very much the same, you and I
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye
Still waiting to get hurt, time after time
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye
When love lies in our hands, we run away and hide
And I can't help but wonder why
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye

The sweet hello, the sad goodbye
We're very much the same, you and I
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye
Still waiting to get hurt, time after time
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye
When love lies in our hands, we run away and hide
And I can't help but wonder why
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye

Goodbye
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye
The sweet hello, the sad goodbye
