Dottie West - Her Hello Was My Goodbye Lyrics

(Quinn Garton)

She only smiled and said hello
But your eyes were stars aglow
And I knew her hello was my goodbye.

She held your hand a bit too long
As I stood there lookin' on
And I watched you
I watched you fall in love.

Was it the time, was it the place or was it her pretty face
That held you like a moth around the flame
Though it's hard to realize still I know my eyes don't lie
The fact remains you love her just the same.

In a twinkle of an eye
My dreamworld fell from your sky
I knew her hello was my goodbye.

--- Instrumental ---

I know you'll try hard to explain
But won't you please feel my pain
I knew her hello was my goodbye...
