Standing at the door of the Pink Flamingo, Crying in the rain Here was a kind of so-so love and I'm gonna make sure it doesn't happen again You and I it, had to be the standing joke of the year You were a run-around, a lost and found, then I found thee half healed
CHORUS
Take your hands off me I don't belong to you, you see And take a look in my face for the last time I never knew you,you never knew me, say hello, goodbye Say hello and wave goodbye
We tried to make it work, you in a cocktail skirt and me in a suit but it just wasn't me You're used to wearing less and now your life's a mess so insecure you see Well I put up with all the scenes and this is one scene that's going to be played my way
CHORUS
Under the deep red light, I can see the make-up sliding down Well hey little girl, you will always make-up so take off that unbecoming frown As for me well, I'll find someone who's not going cheap in the sales A nice little house wife who'll give me the steady life and not keep going off the rails.
CHORUS Repeat Say hello- wave goodbye
We were born before the wind, who are we to understand We were born before the wind, say goodbye Through the rain, sleet and snow, get on the train and say goodbye, say goodbye, in the wind and the rain my darling, say goodbye In the wind and the rain my darling.
