I Get Along Without You Very Well by Billie Holiday

Hoagy carmichael

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 do
But 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 guy
What a fool am i
To think my breaking heart
Could kid the moon
What's in store
Should i fall once more
No, it's best that i stick to my tune

I 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

What's in store
Should i fall once more
No, it's best that i stick to my tune

I 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
