When you went away I cried

I was hurt down deep inside

Such misery, just a broken heart can tell

Now my lonesome tears I've shed

And I've said what should be said

I can get along without you very well



Down before me on your knees

Forgiveness, dear, you plead

You're sorry for the lies you used to tell

Now you want me back again

To forgive would be a sin

I can get along without you very well



You don't seem to realize

All my love for you has died

I don't hate you but I'm sorry that I fell

For your lies and tricks and schemes

You're no longer in my dreams

I can get along without you very well



Now our love is at an end

And your loneliness begins

How much I've loved you there's no way to tell

But it's over now and past

I forgot your love at last

I can get along without you very well
