Nina Simone - I Get Along Without You Very Well (Except Sometimes) Lyrics

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
And someones 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
