I get along without you very well (except sometimes) (2013)
composed by Hoagy Carmichael in 1939, with lyrics based on a poem written by Jane Brown Thompson.
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.
