Say Hello Wave Goodbye (Radio Edit) lyrics by David Gray

David Gray - Say Hello Wave Goodbye

Standin at the door of the pink Flamingo cryin in the rain,
It was a kind of so-so love and I�m gonna make sure it doesn�t happen
again,
You and I had to be the standing joke of the year,
You were a runaround, a lost and found and not for me I feel,

Take your hands off me, hey,
I don�t belong to you, you see,
And take a look in my face, for the last time,
I never knew you, you never knew me,
Say hello goodbye,
Say hello and wave goodbye,

We tried to make it work, you in a cocktail skirt and me in a suit but it
just wasn�t me,
You�re used to wearing less, and now your life�s a mess, so insecure you
see,
I put up with all the scenes, this is one scene that�s goin to be played
my way

(Chorus) Say hello and wave goodbye

Under the deep red light I can see the make-up slidin down,
Well hey little girl you will always make up so take off that unbecoming
frown,
As for me, well I�ll find someone who�s not goin cheap in the sales,
A nice little housewife who�ll give me a steady life and not keep going
off the rails,

(Chorus)
Say hello and wave goodbye(repeated)
