Hello in There (2016 Remaster) - Bette Midler

We had an apartment in the city

Me and my husband liked living there

Its been years since the kids have grown

A life of their own left us alone

John and linda live in omaha

Joe is somewhere on the road

We lost davy in the korean war

I still don't know what for

don't matter any more

You know that old trees just grow stronger

And old rivers grow wilder every day

But old people they just grow lonesome

Waiting for someone to say

Hello in there hello

Me and my husband

we don't talk much anymore

He sits and stares through the backdoor screen

And all the news just repeats itself

Like some forgotten dream

That weve both seen

Someday I'll go and call up judy

We worked together at the factory

Ah but what would I say

when she asks whats new

Say nothing whats with you

Nothing much to do

You know that old trees just grow stronger

And old rivers grow wilder every day

Ah but old people they just grow lonesome

Waiting for someone to say

Hello in there hello

So if you're walking down the street sometime

And you should spot some hollow ancient eyes

Don't you pass them by and stare

As if you didn't care

Say hello in there hello
