Song Lyrics - Hello Again
Hello again, hello
Just called to say 'hello'
I couldn't sleep at all tonight
And I know it's late
But I couldn't wait
Hello, my friend, hello
Just called to let you know
I think about you every night
When I'm here alone
And you're there at home
Hello
Maybe it's been crazy
And maybe I'm to blame
But I put my heart above my head
We've been through it all
And you loved me just the same
And when you're not there
I just need to hear
Hello, my friend, hello
It's good to need you so
It's good to love you like I do
And to feel this way
When I hear you say
Hello
Hello, my friend, hello
Just called to let you know
I think about you every night
And I know it's late
But I couldn't wait
Hello

The Jazz
Singer 25th Anniversary Edition DVD
OK...so Neil
Diamond is a better singer than he is an actor.
Interestingly this doesn't really inhibit this story of the
son of a young Jewish cantor striving to make a career in the
music industry. Perhaps in part to the power and presence of Sir
Laurence Olivier as his rigid father, the movie will hold you all
the way to the end |
