lyrics
I CAN GET BY WITHOUT YOU
Rothenberg/Walsh
Rolling hills and a big blue sky
You and me in a lullaby
Fast asleep as the daylight dies
I go back in a dream and forgive every thought of you
I can get by without you
Buttercup and a butterfly
You and me as we say goodbye
Another day and I think I'll try
To go back in the past and forget every thought of you
I can get by without you
Forgive me if I hurt you
Forget that I ever let you down
Don't ask when and don't ask why
You and me and I could not cry
Promises of a life gone by
I go back on my word and remember the thought of you
I can get by without you
I go back on my word and remember the thought of you
I go back on my word and remember the thought of you
I go back on my word and remember the thought of you
I go back on my word and remember the thought of you
Rothenberg/Walsh
Rolling hills and a big blue sky
You and me in a lullaby
Fast asleep as the daylight dies
I go back in a dream and forgive every thought of you
I can get by without you
Buttercup and a butterfly
You and me as we say goodbye
Another day and I think I'll try
To go back in the past and forget every thought of you
I can get by without you
Forgive me if I hurt you
Forget that I ever let you down
Don't ask when and don't ask why
You and me and I could not cry
Promises of a life gone by
I go back on my word and remember the thought of you
I can get by without you
I go back on my word and remember the thought of you
I go back on my word and remember the thought of you
I go back on my word and remember the thought of you
I go back on my word and remember the thought of you
