Lyrics

Hope my attitude

Won't bother you

But the day was long

And my mood is blue

I couldn't think

Where else to go

I just dropped by

To say hello

Nothing special

That I want to say

I just came

To pass the time of day

I've told my heart

"It mustn't show"

I just dropped by

To say hello

I've forgotten

Just how sweet our love was

Except now and then

Memories fall

Just like the rain

And I remember when

Well, don't let me bore you

Anymore

I'm not quite as lonely

As I was before

I didn't want

A thing, you know

I just dropped by

To say hello

Well, don't let me bore you

Anymore

'Cause I'm not quite as lonely

As I was before

I didn't want

A thing, you know

I just dropped by

To say hello
