I get along without you very well
Of course I do
Except when soft rains fall
And drip from leaves then I recall
The thrill of being sheltered in your arms
Of course I doBut I get along without you very well
I’ve forgotten you just like I should
Of course I have
Except to hear your name
Or someone’s laugh that is the same
But I’ve forgotten you just like I should
What a guyWhat a fool am I
To think my breaking heart could kid the moon
What’s in store
Should I phone once more
No it’s best that I stick to my tuneI get along without you very well
Of course I do
Except perhaps in spring
But I should never think of spring
For that would surely break my heart in two
