You love to love me when you're leaving
Halfway out the door
You always turn around kiss me
Saying you hate to go
But never, no, no, no, no
You never kiss me hello
You always love to leave me guessing
Are you here on business or pleasure?
So I'll play it cool
That last time we'll ignore
But baby, no, no, no
You never kiss me hello
Well I heard you had a little thing for those long goodbyes
But if you ask me what I think
I'd say there's something to be said for the short word "hi"
Love me when you're leaving
Halfway out the door
You always pick me up, swing me around
Like you were going off to the war
Baby, no, no, no
You never kiss me hello
Well if you'd only kiss me when you first come around
I might have a chance
I could be over you by the time you leave town
Well that's what you think
You know how to leave me wanting more
But why not live it up now because life is just too short
Baby, no, no, no
You never kiss me hello
Once, before you go, come on and kiss me hello
