May 1959


Hello love, awfully glad you've found me,
Hello love, spread your love around me.
The door's been open
But where have you been?
I've been here hopin'
You'd let yourself in,
And grin, and

Hello love, I can tell you're near me,
Hello love, now at last you hear me.
I know someday you'll be returning up above;
What's that you say?
You're here to stay,
Hello, hello love!

Hello love, I can tell you're near me,
Hello love, now at last you hear me.
I know someday you'll be returning up above;
What's that you say?
You're here to stay,
Hello, hello love!
