I'm not saying good-bye.
I'm saying hello, to San Francisco.
I'm not saying good-bye,
I'm saying hello.
I'm not saying good-night,
I'm saying good morning
For I hope to be leaving early, I
hear the sunrise is beautiful
Over the bay.
And you-ooh-ooh,
You know me -
In the afternoons
I usually take naps
Or write you letters,
But soon, it will be so much better
CHORUS**
Cause I/we'll dance
And I/we'll sing
And I/we'll draw
And I/we'll paint
And I/we'll do all of this in
One single day
Cause the next six
Of the week I/we'll be working so hard
To live life in the city I/we'll soon call my/our home
And maybe once a year we'll get chocolate chip scones
Cause they're pretty dear
And it's expensive to live there, anyway
I'm not saying good, bye.
I'm not, saying good-bye,
I'm not, saying good-bye,
I'm not, saying goodbye,
I'm saying hello,
To San, to San Francisco.
And I'll miss you,
And you, and you.
Please don't tell me it, isn't true,
I've just
Gotta go.
Gotta… CHORUS
It'll be so much better,
We don't even know
We'll be free. Free.
BRIDGE
I wanna go, so, bad,
Why can't you understand,
Everytime you, get, mad
I close my eyes
And I see the lights,
And everything's fine.
CHORUS
It'll be so much better,
We don't even knoooooow,
But I wanna go..BRIDGE
