Linda Eder - If he never said hell

If he never said Hello
If his eyes had never smiled at me
what did he find inside my heart
that made him take a chance?

Did he know what I was feeling?
could it be that he was lonely
something between us had begun
something so beautiful
something that started with "hello"

Now memories are filling me with pictures of a past
foolish me, hoping love would last
and even though I still can feel
the way he looks at me
the way he looks at me

If he never said "I love you"
if he never said "forever"
I would have never known love
but if he never said hello
I'd never know
"Good-Bye"
