I GET ALONG WITHOUT
By Hoagy Carmichael
A Mickey McBride Arrangement
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!
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!
YOU VERY WELL
