I Get Along Without You Very Well
Thriving Through Seasons of Heartbreak: A Melodic Journey of Resilience
Lyrics
I get along without you very well
I am able to manage without you quite effectively
Of course I do
A confirmation that the speaker can indeed get along without the person in question
Except when soft rains fall
Exceptionally, when gentle rains occur
And drip from leaves, then I recall
Recollection is triggered, thinking about the joy of being protected in your embrace
The thrill of being sheltered in your arms
Reflecting on the happiness experienced when held in your arms
Of course, I do
A reaffirmation of the ability to get by without the person
But I get along without you very well
Reiterating the capability to cope without the individual
I've forgotten you just like I should
I have successfully erased memories of you as I ought to
Of course I have
Confirming the speaker's capability to forget as necessary
Except to hear your name
Except when your name is mentioned
Or someone's laugh that is the same
Or when a laughter reminiscent of yours is heard
But I've forgotten you just like I should
Reasserting the successful forgetting of the person
What a guy, what a fool am I
Expressing self-awareness and regret for being naive
To think my breaking heart could kid the moon
The realization that the speaker's heartbreak cannot deceive even the moon
What's in store? Should I phone once more?
Contemplating whether to make a call, but deciding against it
No, it's best that I stick to my tune
Choosing to stick to one's own emotional tune or perspective
I get along without you very well
Reiteration of the ability to go on without the person
Of course I do
Confirmation of the speaker's self-sufficiency
Except perhaps in Spring
Except, perhaps, during the season of Spring
But I should never think of Spring
A conscious decision not to dwell on thoughts of Spring
For that would surely break my heart in two
Avoiding Spring as it has the potential to cause heartbreak
