Karaoké Hello in There Bette Midler

We had an apartment in the city

Me and my husband liked living there

It's been years since the kids have grown

A life on 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 we've 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 what's new

Say, nothing, what's with you

Nothing much to do

You know that old trees just grow stronger

And old rivers grow wilder every day

Ah, but, 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
