Yeah, I believed him
When he said he'd seen you out
And some other thing about
Calling it even
And the way our bridges burn
And the things we never learn
I'll never learn
And how he was concerned
But I think it's startin' to turn
Hello Walter!
I'm amazed that you are here
And it's nice, you know, for a while
And the only sound can reach my ears
Is "How have you been?"
Down at the river
Where the freaks would do their best
And the brothers came to rest
Mostly together
And we thanked our lucky stars
For a world waiting that once opened the bars
And guitars, always guitars
And how did we get where we are?
Hello Walter!
I'm amazed that you are here
And it's nice, you know, for a while
And the only sound can reach my ears
Is "How have you been?"
Hello Walter!
I'm amazed that you are here
And it's nice, you know, for a while
And the only sound can reach my ears
Is "How have you been?"
"How have you been?"
"How have you been?"
