I Get Along Without You Wery Well (except Sometimes)

(1952) hoagy carmichael



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
