Talk to You Lyrics

Early in the morning, I hear my neighbor’s stereo
The telephone should start ringing as usual
I listen to my answering machine screening all my calls
Solicitors, wrong numbers, and some I just don’t know

I don’t know what to say,
but how are you today?

I mailed your letter the other day, but it’s got so far to go
Someone backed into my car, it has a dent in the door
Now I can’t stand eating breakfast early in the morning
Now there's someone knocking at my door
It’s a friend who’s getting married
I hope this one lasts longer than the one before

I don’t know what to say,
but how are you today?

I got the blues this morning
Oh, trying to make it through
To live and to love you sometimes suffer
My neighbor called it paying dues

Another day just a fading memory flashes across my eyes
Here and there, Happy said, “Oh Lord, just got to make it rhyme”
Nothing much to tell you,
but there's so much on my mind
Guess I'll put this pencil down
“Sincerely, your friend”

I don’t know what to say,
but how are you today?
I don’t know what to say,
but how are you today?
