Hello Beautiful (2020 Version)

I was 18 when we first met

Couldn't believe how you took my breath

In your sweatshirt, your Converse

You didn't even know you were rockin' my world

Sittin' in line, tryna get a coffee

Stealin' looks, you turned around and caught me

I laughed, and you smiled

And we took a chance to stay for a while

Ooh, whoa, whoa, whoa

I never saw it comin' but

Ooh, whoa, whoa, whoa

But I had to say something

Hello, beautiful, I've never seen you before

Do you live 'round here, what's your name, beautiful?

The way you looked at me, girl, it took my breath away

And I had to introduce myself, I just had to say

Hello, beautiful, beautiful, whoa, whoa

Hello, beautiful, beautiful, whoa, whoa

I got your name, and I got your number

We sat for hours, talkin' to each other

But one night wasn't enough

We were all in, fallin' in love

I tried to see you, but your daddy wouldn't let me

He told you you should just forget me

But what we had was something so real

And he, he didn't know the way we feel

Ooh, whoa, whoa, whoa

So I met you in the dark

Ooh, whoa, whoa, whoa

Underneath the stars

Hello, beautiful, it's good to see you again

I'm glad you found your way down to this riverbend

I know we don't have long, but I'll take what I can get

Every moment spent with you is worth the consequence

Hello, beautiful, beautiful, whoa, whoa

Hello, beautiful, beautiful, whoa, whoa

And I remember when you called me

Something in your voice had changed

You told me you were movin' with your dad to another state

I'm still waitin' by this river bend

Yeah, I come here every day

Just waitin' for that moment when you find your way

Ooh, back to me, and I'll say

Hello, beautiful, yeah

Hello, beautiful
