I get alone 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 alone 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 alone
|
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
|
