How Are You?

How are you? I’m learning English\nYou’re looking good, it’s so hot today\nWe should keep in touch, oh you’d better be going\nIt’s a long long way to your uncle’s place\nI got a job, it’s just okay\nBut how’s your dad? It’s hard to say\nI miss you all, it’s been so long\nAnd who can say where love has gone?\nAnd your life is just beginning\nAnd my life is almost through\nI’ve given up, never finished school\nThere was too much, too much work to do\nHow are you? Shall we get a soda?\nYou’re looking good, it’s so hot today\nWe should keep in touch, oh you’d better be going\nIt’s a long long way to your uncle’s place\nI was right there, right with your mother\nAnd her last words 'fore she passed away\nDid they tell you about the promise?\nShould I ask you? Tell me what’d they say?\nAnd there’s no way that you could help me\nAnd you’re barely better off than I\nYou’re a beauty, sing like an angel\nWe’re together for both our lives\nHow are you? Well, I’m okay\nYou’re looking good, it’s hot today\nI miss you all, it’s been so long\nAnd who can tell where love has gone?\nNow I’ve really liked this conversation\nIt was long ago, you were just a child\nIt’s getting late, I must be going\nLife is hard sometimes but I’ll be alright\nHow are you?\nOh, I’m okay\nThis is a nice place\nIt’s so hot today
