Well now I feel I’ve wasted all this time
But I guess that’s alright?
And shooting off flares is a losing fight
When you won't look to the sky.
And if you hear this, I surely must’ve died,
I hope at least, you cried
And hey! Life sucks, but you can’t say I didn’t try
So hello from the next life!
Hello again, if I ever said goodbye
We’ll try again, in another place, another time
You’ve done so much for me, more than I ever could comprehend
So I know one day we’ll meet again.
Close your eyes, please with me won’t you lie
Before time runs me dry?
I know I’ve hurt you, but I hope that now you know
That I’ll be always by your side
From now until the day I die.
Hello again, if I’ve ever said goodbye
Won’t you come again to me in another life
We’re such a mess but I don’t think we know us any other way
So I’m sure we’ll meet again some day
Hello hello, I don’t wanna say goodbye to you
In every lifetime I will always be a fool for you
I don’t wanna rewind but I’ve learned that every time our life ends
Is when we get to start again.
Hello, hello,
Someday we'll get to start again.
