Milton Nascimento - Hello Goodbye Lyrics

You say "yes", I say "no"
You say "stop" and I say "go, go, go"
Oh no
You say "goodbye" and I say "hello, hello, hello"
I don't know why you say "goodbye", I say "hello, hello, hello"
I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello

I say "high", you say "low"
You say "why?" And I say "I don't know"
Oh no
You say "goodbye" and I say "hello, hello, hello"
I don't know why you say "goodbye", I say "hello, hello, hello"
(Hello, goodbye, hello, goodbye hello, goodbye)
I don't know why you say "goodbye", I say "hello"

(Hello, goodbye, hello, goodbye hello, goodbye hello, goodbye)
Why, why, why, why, why, why, do you
Say "goodbye, goodbye, bye, bye"
Oh no
You say "goodbye" and I say "hello, hello, hello"
I don't know why you say "goodbye", I say "hello, hello, hello"
I don't know why you say "goodbye", I say "hello"

You say "yes", I say "no"
(I say "yes", but I may mean "no")
You say "stop", I say "go, go, go"
(I can stay still it's time to go)
Oh, oh no

You say "goodbye" and I say "hello, hello, hello"
I don't know why you say "goodbye", I say "hello, hello, hello"
I don't know why you say "goodbye", I say "hello, hello, hello"
I don't know why you say "goodbye", I say "hello-wow, oh hello"
