I Get Along Without You Very Well - Chet Baker

I get along without you very well Of course, I do Except when soft rains fall And drips 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

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 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.
