Lyrics

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
