lyrics

How are you doing, my friend?
I know I've been gone, traveling for long
Are you enjoying yourself?
Or are you down, just fooling around?

How is it possible that I just don't know
What's going on inside your mind in silence?
Oh, how I wish I could be with you now
Sit by your side and hear you out

People make plans and move on
They're gone with a kiss, that's how it is
But when you hold someone dear
Then saying goodbye is like dying inside

How is it possible that I just don't know
What going on inside your mind in silence?
Oh, how I wish I could be with your now
Stay at your house and talk into the deep night hours

And if another country calls
Crossing the distance makes it difficult
To keep the friendship like it was
Will we hold on although we're far?

Don't think because I'm here
I don't really care
I want you to know, I'm thinking a lot about you
It's about time to give you that call
Pick up the phone, ask you "how have you been?"
