I get along without you very well
Of course, I do
Except when soft rains fall
And drips 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 say would
Of course, I have
Or maybe except when I hear your name
Or someone's laugh that is the same
I've forgotten you just like I should

What a guy
What a fool am I
To think my aching heart could kid 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
