Tell me, are you not alright
All you do is cry
Ever since I left
I'm sorry, I hate it when I work
I swear the Heavens and the earth stand still, for you

So this is hello from Detroit
Soon I'm heading to Boston
All this is to you is noise
I don't even see you that often

Ooh, ooh

Sorry, I gotta pay the bills
Keepin' lights on makin' meals
Just to make It through
You tell me

You hate that damn suitcase
Why can't you ever stay in place
Feels like you're running away

So this is hello from home
Isn't this what you wanted
I guess I'll see you over the phone
I don't even see you that often

Ooh, ooh

If you could talk would you say
Thank you for all of my problems
Feels like they're never goin' away
Lookin' forward to when you're calling

Another hello from Detroit
Soon you're headed to Boston
All this is to me is noise
You don't even see me that often

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh
