How Have You Been — текст песни (Ani Difranco)

You could always hear the rub squeaking

Of those two tree limbs

til one day one of them came down

Taken down by the wind

But on the one thats still there

You can still see where the bark was

Rubbed bare

Its a metaphor if you know what I mean

How have you been?



Me and you

And your girlfriend makes three

In the interest of even numbers

I will make myself scarce

I will make myself scarcely me

But Ill be outside your window at night

Pull up your shades

Leave on your light

I dont want to come in between

I just want to know

How have you been



I leave for a living

Musics just something I do

On my way out the door

And Id do almost anything once

Something about you

I think Id do you more

If I had my way Id stay here

And watch your hair grow for a while

It makes me smile just to dream of it

How have you been
