Roodnoot - How've You Been Lyrics

Slow wait
Time out
She makes a cup of tea
Clean plates
She seats to settle down

Bathrobe
Grey gown
The comfort in het ways
So silently she waits

Might have been sound
Might have been sight
That gave you away
But it's hard to be alone
Hard to be alone
When you are around

So tell me how you've been
Tell me how you've been
Of all this time I saw you standing by
Tell me how you've been
Tell me how you've been
Of all this time I saw you standing by

Cold coat
Closed eyes
A faint but weathered smile
Warm hearth
A silence in the air

Lipstick
Fades out
It's only been a year
So try to still be there

It's been a while
It's been a while
Since she wore it out
But it's hard to be alone
Hard to be alone
With no one around

So tell me how you've been
Tell me how you've been
Of all this time I saw you passing by
Tell me how you've been
Tell me how you've been
Of all this time I saw you passing by

'My heart'
