Harry Connick, Jr. - Only 'Cause I Don't Have You lyrics

Turn off the music take down the signs
Pack up the boxes put away the wine
No toast for the future
No reward for the find

If looks could kill this mirror would do
Only 'cause I don't have you
Later on good wishes later on good try
I'm afraid won't do it's not justified
You go from the privy
And you end up deprived on top of the world
But still there's no view
Only 'cause I don't have you

Not built on a wisp or whim
Twist an arm, break a leg
Tear me limb from limb
If there's a point you've made it
If there's a fare I've paid it

Don't bother with ovations
Leave off the fanfare
Let the candles melt down
Till the smoke's all that's there
Leave the veil in place a tear, la mer
I could say it was nothing
Now that there's nothing new
Only 'cause I don't have you
