Lyrics Robert Earl Keen – Between Hello & Goodbye

It was you and me last Saturday alone out in the dark
It was something like no good for nothin’, you’re playin’ with my heart
You got ?mad? and I’m alone and so I sit and cry
In between our first hello and our last goodnight goodbye

Chorus:
And I wonder about the words that we have wasted
I wonder about the things you say that make me start to cry
And I wonder about the time that we’ve forsaken
In between our first hello and our last goodnight goodbye

The headlights beamed across your face, the shadows fell on mine
The words fell down upon the road beside the borderline
Or slip into the darkness or give it one more try
In between our first hello and our last goodnight goodbye

Chorus

Somewhere between our first hello, my dear goodnight goodbye
