I Get Along

Feeling like I'm stuck in a hole 
body and soul 
while you're out of control 
Now I know why you had to go 
well, I think we both know 
why it had to be so 

I've been trying not to cry 
when I'm in the public eye
stuck here with the shame 
and taking my share of the blame 
while making sudden plans that don't include you 

I get along, get along 
without you very well 
I get along very well 
I get along, get along 
without you very well 
I get along very well 

Now I know you'd much rather be 
with rock-royalty 
instead of someone like me 
The big boys are back and we need them, you said 
Think it was something you'd read
and it stuck in your head 

Even though I don't suppose 
that's as far as it goes 
you've got quite an appetite 
for being wronged and in the right
well from now on it won't affect me 

I get along, get along 
without you very well 
I get along very well 
I get along, get along 
without you very well 
I get along very well 

The morning after the night before 
I've been alerted 
to your lies. 
I phoned you up 
Your calls we're all diverted 
Took a long time to track you down
even then you were defiant 
It's not what you think it is you said 
and proceeded to deny it 

So I lost my patience at last 
and it happened so fast 
you belong in the past 

I've been trying not to cry 
when I'm in the public eye 
stuck here with the shame 
and taking my share of the blame 
while making sudden plans that don't include you 

I get along, get along 
without you very well 
I get along very well 
I get along, get along 
without you very well 
I get along very well
