Hello, hello again 
Hello, hello again 

You might have forgot 
The journey ends 
You tied your knots 
You made your friends 
You left the scene 
Without a trace 
One hand on the ground 
One hand in space 

Oh, you passed on mercy 
You tried the rest 
You gave your body 
You gave your best 

Staring at the green door 
Living in the sky 
You don't want to know it 
You just want to fly

Hello, (hello) hello again 
Hello, (hello) hello again 

I know (I know you're a dreamer) 
Who's under the gun 
I know (I know you're a dreamer) 
Who's only just begun 

(Hello) hello, hello again 
(I'm saying) hello, (hello) hello again 

And when there's nothing 
Nothing left to loose 
You leave it all 
To fade to blue 

(You want to feel) electric 
(You want to feel) loose 
(You want to be) eclectic 
You want to call a truce 
Look at the profile 
Staring at the flame 
Waiting for the sunshine 
Standing in the rain

(Hello) hello, hello again 
(I'm saying) hello, (hello) hello again 

(I'm saying) hello, (hello) hello again 
(Hello, hello again)

(Hello, hello, hello, hello)
