[Verse 1]

Found the string to pull the parachute

Just before I hit the ground, I stopped and thought of you

Oh, what a lovely view when you're not dying

Letting go of you is terrifying

[Verse 2]

I think the sun has parted with the clouds (Ahh-ahh, ahh-ahh)

They finally put their differences behind them for a while (Ahh-ahh, ahh-ahh)

And I can feel the heat kissing my skin (Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh)

I can feel the blood rushing back in (Ahh)

[Chorus]

Hello again, dear stranger, hello again

I hope you know I've missed ya, how have you been?

I've been pretty bad, but I am coming back, and

I'll be seeing you again

[Verse 3]

I said some things to you I did not mean

I promised more than I should have and ruined everything (Ahh-ahh, ahh-ahh)

But yesterday, oh, yesterday is gone (Woo-ooh, ooh-ahh)

Heaven only knows the time I've lost

[Chorus]

Hello again, dear stranger, hello again

I hope you know I've missed ya, how have you been?

I've been pretty bad, but I am coming back, and

I'll be seeing you again

[Bridge]

I am not the same, I will not be the same again

Don't go looking for the girl you loved, her innocence is dead

And I buried all my sin inside a casket in a grave

"Here lies someone almost famous, who gave up everything"

[Chorus]

Hello again, dear stranger, hello again

I hope you know I've missed ya, how have you been?

I've been pretty bad, but I am coming back, and

I'll be seeing you—

I've been pretty bad, but I am not as sad, and

I'll be seeing you again
