"How Are You?" lyrics

"How are you?"
Am I just another passerby
Every morning, at this time
Well there's an answer
But it looks like you're about to cry
In a whisper
"I'm fine."

You don't look at me like used to
I have no idea what you're going through
It ain't rainbows, it ain't sunshine
What's your problem
Please make it mine

Every time you're giving me that "I'm alright"
It's like you're only saying it to be polite
I'll do anything to have you in my arms tonight
Tell me how you really feel

"How are you?"
Are you asking with your back to me
Like you owe me, like you're trying
Well I've been waiting
Buckled up for a catastrophe
And I'm ready for the ride

You don't look at me like you used to
I have no idea what you're going through
No it ain't rainbows, it ain't sunshine
Tell me the problem and please make it mine

Every time you're giving me that "I'm alright"
It's like you're only saying it to be polite
I'll do anything to have you in my arms tonight
Tell me how you really feel

Every time you're giving me that "I'm alright"
It's like you're only saying it to be polite
I'll do anything to have you in my arms tonight
Tell me how you really feel

Silence can be a dangerous thing
Cause if I don't how you're doing
Well then I don't know what to do
And baby that silence can ruin everything
Where did we lose communication?
Can you even hear me sing?
Sing it now

Every time you're giving me that "I'm alright"
It's like you're only saying it to be polite
I'll do anything to have you in my arms tonight
Tell me how you really feel

Every time you're giving me that "I'm alright"
It's like you're only saying it to be polite
I'll do anything to have you in my arms tonight
Tell me how you really feel

Tell me how you really feel
Tell me how you really feel
Tell me how you really feel
Tell me how you really feel
