lyrics

Please say "Hi" to those you know
and say "Hello" to those you don't
give a nod, a smile, or wave
or take a minute to say "Hey"

The other day I saw a friend
from way back when when we would spend
all our time down at the park
so many ventures we embarked

But we grew old, we grew apart
we both got jobs and sold our hearts
I would have stopped to say hello
but I was late, I had to go

Yesterday I heard the news
someone was hangin' with a noose
they said he lived a happy life
he had a kid, he had a wife

It took a while to settle in
that this hangman was that friend
so please say "Hi" to those you know
and say "Hello" to those you don't.
