"I Get Along Without You Very Well" lyrics

"I Get Along Without You Very Well"

Well, 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've forgotten you very well

Yeah, 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, 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, it's best I stick to my tune

'Cause I get along without you very well
Yeah, of course, I do
Except perhaps in Spring
But I should never, never think of Spring
For that would surely break my heart in two
