John Michael Montgomery

hello l-o-v-e

Tore out her page from my little book
Took out her picture gave it one last look
Hung a big sign out on the door
Sayin' love don't live around here anymore

Picked up what was left of my pride
Topped off the tank for a long hard ride
Seventeen miles outta lonelyville
Yonder came a darlin' in a Coupe Deville

SO LONG HEARTACHE ADIOS
SORROW SEE YOU LATER
TIME TO HIT THE ROAD
GOODBYE PAIN AND MISERY
HELLO L-O-V-E

Well I spun around and I hit the gas
Hot on the tail of that Cadillac
Said a little prayer, held my breath
Sure 'nough the green light turned to red

SO LONG HEARTACHE ADIOS
SORROW SEE YOU LATER
TIME TO HIT THE ROAD
GOODBYE PAIN AND MISERY
HELLO L-O-V-E

She looked at me, I looked at her
A few days later in a little brown church
Made a sweet deal with the Justice of the Peace
Forty-five dollars for a license and a ring

SO LONG HEARTACHE ADIOS
SORROW SEE YOU LATER
TIME TO HIT THE ROAD
GOODBYE PAIN AND MISERY
HELLO L-O HELLO L-O
HELLO L-O-V-E
