Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Hello my friend we meet again, It's been a while, where should we begin, Feels like forever, Within my heart are memories, Of perfect love that you gave to me, Oh.. I remember. Chorus: When you are with me, I'm free, I'm careless, I believe, Above all the others, we'll fly, this brings tears to my eyes. My sacrifice. We've seen our share of ups and downs, Oh, how quickly life can turn around, In an instant, It feels so good to reunite, Within yourself, and within your mind, Let's find peace there. Repeat Chorus: I just want to say hello again, I just want to say hello again, Repeat Chorus: 2 times ( Cuz when you're with me, I'm free I'm careless I believe Above all the others, we'll fly This brings tears to my eyes ) My sacrifice My sacrifice (I just want to say hello again.) I just want to say hello again. My Sacrifice
