             How Can I Say Hello

How can I say hello-
To someone who’s face reveals a warmness within
How can I get to know you enough
To ask to see you again ?

You were just sitting there-
Talking to them though you seemed not to hear what they said
There in your eye’s I could see that
maybe you’re feeling alone just like me

If I could just forget that I might look foolish-
I think I could smile and say “Hi”
Where did I learn the rule that friendliness had to be planned-
Did I ever ask “Why ?”

Now that I know you see
What I’m trying to say I thought maybe we could be friends
Let’s just try it and see and
I promise you I will defend your right to stay free

If I could just forget that I might look foolish-
I think I could smile and say “Hi”
Where did I learn the rule that friendliness had to be planned-
Did I ever ask “Why ?”

Now that I know you see
What I’m trying to say I thought maybe we could be friends
Let’s just try it and see and
I promise you I will defend your right to stay free
