About This Track

'Hello' by Take That is a Pop single from 'The Circus' (2008). In the lyrics, a narrator drifts through mornings and headlines, noticing the idea that things might be changing while remaining absorbed in private fantasies. There is a lingering desire to write a “long love song with no meaning”, alongside the wish that nobody hears. The mood is quietly wistful, with daily comforts like filter coffee and talk of changing one’s view held up against the outside world.

"Hello" is a track by Take That, from the album The Circus, released 28th November 2008. The track is 3:31 long. It's filed under Pop. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 1 article about Take That.

Lyrics

Hello

I'd watch the world go by in the morning
Lose myself in the the news
Looks like the cost of houses are falling but I don't notice

I'd write a long love song with no meaning
And hope nobody would hear
A life of filter coffee and dreaming, dreaming

Thought that anyone could change my view
But everything looks different when I'm looking around with you

Glad you took the time to say hello, hello
Now I don't ever wanna let you go, oh no
All the bells are ringing out and all the birds are singing out
Glad you took the time to say hello, oh, oh, oh

I'd lock myself away in the evening
Afraid to ever come out
Watch TV and get lost in my feelings, feelings

Never thought that anyone could change my view
But everything looks different when I'm looking around with you

Glad you took the time to say hello, hello
Now I don't ever wanna let you go, oh no
All the bells are ringing out and all the birds are singing out
Glad you took the time to say hello, oh, oh, oh

It's a lovely day, it's a lovely day
Never thought that anyone could change my view
But everything looks different when I'm looking with you

Glad you took the time to say hello, hello
Now I don't ever wanna let you go, let you go
All the bells are ringing out and all the birds are singing out
Glad you took the time to say hello, oh, oh, oh

Hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello
All the bells are ringing out and all the birds are singing out
Glad you took the time to say hello, oh, oh, oh
Hello
