Hello, Goodbye Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You say yes, I say no
You say stop and I say go go go
Ooh no
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
I say high, you say low
You say why and I say I don't know
Oh no
[Chorus]
You say goodbye and I say hello
(Hello, goodbye, hello, goodbye) Hello, hello
(Hello, goodbye) I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello
(Hello, goodbye, hello, goodbye) Hello, hello
(Hello, goodbye) I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello
(Hello, goodbye)
[Bridge]
Why why why why why why do you say goodbye?
Goodbye, bye bye bye bye
Oh no
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 3]
You say yes (I say yes)
I say no (But I may mean no)
You say stop (I can stay)
And I say go go go ('Till it's time to go)
Oh, oh no
[Chorus]
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, oh, oh
Hello

What is it about
Paul said:

(Many Years From Now by Barry Miles)
What did The Beatles say about "Hello, Goodbye"?
Here’s what Paul had to say:
