i get along without you wery well except sometimes

Nina Simone

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 said I would
Of course, I have
Or maybe except when I hear your name
Someone s laugh that s just the same
I ve forgotten you just like
I should

What a guy
What a fool am I
To think my aching hearth
Could keep the moon
What s in store
Should I phone once more
No, no, no, no, no
It s best that I stick to my tune

I said that I get along
Without you very well
Of course, I do
Except perhaps in spring
But then I should never
Ever think of spring
For that would
Surely break my heart in two
