Marianne Faithfull - I Get Along Without You Very Well Songtexte

I get along without you very 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 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
