[Verse 1]

I thought that what we had was special

You sent your message from behind the phone

I saw a sign made out of metal

You saw an image that was rent-to-own

We could’ve kept our little secrets (you might have missed out on the regret)

Just staying quiet doesn’t cost a dime

We had to have a public meeting (you weren’t great at public speaking)

Another emulator lost to time

(One thing)

[Chorus]

Wave at me when I pass you by (Wave)

I’ll say howdy from the other sidе (Hey)

I’m so glad it all worked out

After all it’s a small town

So wavе at me when I pass you by (Wave)

[Verse 2]

It’s just a never ending battle

Another snaker waiting in the queue

You come to me and try to rattle

But I can tell you son it’s nothing new

It didn’t have to get this sober (it could’ve ended and been over)

I guess it’s all about the friends you keep

(Wave at me)

[Chorus]

Wave at me when I pass you by (Wave)

I’ll say howdy from the other side (Hey)

I’m so glad it all worked out

After all it’s a small town (ain’t it now?)

So wave at me when I pass you by (Wave)

[Bridge]

God has numbered the days of your kingdom

And He has brought it to an end

You have been weighed and have been found wanting

Your riches divided and given to them

[Chorus]

Wave at me when I pass you by (Wave)

I’ll say howdy from the other side (Hey)

I’m so glad it all worked out

After all it’s a small town (ain’t it now?)

So wave at me when I pass you by (Wave)
