Lyrics to Hello Florence, How Are You?
I'm such a lucky girl, I'm travelling the world
And working hard means singing loud and staying up late
Wake up at ten to three, drink fourteen cups of tea
If I'm purely smiling at the air with the occasional thought
What else could I wish for?
And I don't even feel alone
'Cause then, my friends call my telephone
"Let's go for coffee down the road"
"Hello, Florence, how are you?", they ask me every time
I always say I've never been so happy in my life
Then, drink up quickly and say I'm busy
"I really must leave, but let's keep in touch, pleasе"
But I don't call 'cause some things are just too hard to talk about
I'm such a busy girl, I'm travеlling the world
And only contact to parents "I'm still alive"
And every day and night, I keep myself occupied
So, I don't have to hear my head for all our sakes
They have nothing great to say
So glad I'll never have to know how it must feel to be alone
Invite my friends and tell lots of jokes
"Hello, Florence, how are you?", they ask me every time
I always say I've never been so happy in my life
Then, drink up quickly and say I'm busy
"I really must leave, but let's keep in touch, please"
But I never call 'cause some things are just too hard to talk about
And every day, I've been inventing a new duel
So, I don't have to think about how I see it with you
And out the window of the hospital, we'll see, there are
So many odd and beautiful things we could feel
"Hello, Florence, how are you?", you ask me every time
I always say I've never been so happy in my life
And have you drunk late? I say I'm busy
"I really must leave, but please, let's keep in touch"
But I never call 'cause some things are just too hard to talk about
And working hard means singing loud and staying up late
Wake up at ten to three, drink fourteen cups of tea
If I'm purely smiling at the air with the occasional thought
What else could I wish for?
And I don't even feel alone
'Cause then, my friends call my telephone
"Let's go for coffee down the road"
"Hello, Florence, how are you?", they ask me every time
I always say I've never been so happy in my life
Then, drink up quickly and say I'm busy
"I really must leave, but let's keep in touch, pleasе"
But I don't call 'cause some things are just too hard to talk about
I'm such a busy girl, I'm travеlling the world
And only contact to parents "I'm still alive"
And every day and night, I keep myself occupied
So, I don't have to hear my head for all our sakes
They have nothing great to say
So glad I'll never have to know how it must feel to be alone
Invite my friends and tell lots of jokes
"Hello, Florence, how are you?", they ask me every time
