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
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 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
