Hello and Goodbye

Hello and Goodbye

A Poem by Merancapeman
"

My feelings on the matter.

"
Walking down the street
Meet a pretty nice girl
Hello, hello

Talk so much and so long
Feel's like a blessing
Goodbye, goodbye

I'm in my own world
When I get back home
Almost hard to remember
That I'm all alone

It's too easy to forget
It's the hundreth time
Fell in love on the street
Thought it was mine

Too much love and they back away
Not enough, baby, now you don't want to stay
I've been walking these streets for far too long
I maybe know what's right, but I can't tell wrong
Either way, this time,
They've got him on their mind
No room for me anymore

Well, the street belongs
To the quicker fox
While I'm all trapped up
In my pity box

I'm sick of being tired
Tired of being sick
They don't like em nice
And they can't be a prick

I've tried about every damn trick in the book
Short of giving out them corny macho looks
They don't know who I am or what I can do
He can be a fool and still say that he loves you
It's more than voice
But I don't have a choice
So I'll just walk my lonely street.

Sometimes I see them again
That familiar face
Welled with tears
Body filled with disgrace

Her eyes say more
Than her mouth ever tried
She's talking bout her feelings
All I hear is goodbye.

Goodbye, goodbye...

Been staying up nights
Thinkin' bout my way
Maybe I might find
her another day

But another day comes and another day goes
Each moment that passes is a moment so slow
And she walks on by like I'm some kind of friend
Never been a more painful word for an end
No room for a sigh
Just a friendly smile
and goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye and goodbye and goodbye
That's all, just goodbye, goodbye.
