I Get Along Without You Very Well by Carly Simon

(hoagy carmichael)

I get along without you very well
Of course i do
Except when the soft rains fall
And drip from the 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 just the same
But i’ve forgotten you just like i should

What a guy
What a fool i am
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 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
