Talk to You

Early in the morning I hear my neighbors stereo

The telephone should start ringing as usual

I listen to my answering machine screening all my calls

Solicitor 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, now it has a dent in the door

How 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 just trying to make it through

To live and to love you sometimes suffer

My neighbor called it payin' dues, oh yeah



Another day just a fading memory flashes across my eyes

Here and there happy said, oh Lord got to make this rhyme

Nothing much to tell you but I've got so much on my mind

Guess I'll put this pencil down, sincerely your friend I



I don't know what to say

But how are you today?



I don't know what to say

So how are you today?
