Lyrics: Hello! Hello! Oh, Margaret, it's you. I am so glad you called, I was just thinking of you. It's been a long time since you called me. Who? I? I cannot come tonight. No, my dear, I'm not feeling very well. When? Where? I wish I could be there! I'm afraid I must not. Hello? Hello? What did you say, my darling? What did you say? Hello? Hello? Please speak louder! I heard the funniest thing! Jane and Paul are going to get married next July. Don't you think it is the funniest thing you ever heard? I know... of course... (she giggles) And how are you? And how is John? And how is Jean? You must tell them that I send them my love. And how is Ursula, and how is Natalie, and how is Rosalie? I hope she's got ten over her cold. And how is your mother, and how is your father, and how is dear little granny? (nodding) Ha, ha! Ha, ha! (Shaking her head) Ha, ha! Ha, ha! Oh, dear! Well then, good-bye. I am so glad you called, I was just think of you. It's been a long time since you called me. Yes, you already told me that. No my darling, of course I won't forget! Yes, goodbye, my dear, good-bye Yes my darling, good-bye. Yes! Ha, ha! Ha, ha! That's the funniest thing I ever heard! And how are you, and Bets, and Bob, and Sara, and Sam? You must tell them that I send them my love. And how is the pussycat, how is the dog? Oh, I'm so glad! Goodbye! Yes, Margaret! All right, all right!, good-bye! All right, all right!, good-bye! Now, Margaret, goodbye! So long.
I don't know his name or what he looks like, But I have a much more certain guide: I can tell exactly what he looks like inside. When I undertook this correspondence, Little did I know I'd grow so fond; Little did I know our views would so correspond. He writes me what his feelings are On Shaw, Flaubert, Chopin, Renoir. The more I read, the more I find We're one in mind and heart. I know the kind of home we'd share, The books, the prints, the music there, A home, a life, that's warm and full And rich in love and art. I don't need to see his handsome profile. I don't need to see his manly frame. All I need to know is in each letter, Each long revealing letter. I couldn't know him better If I knew his name.
