The End of a Love Affair — текст песни (Billie Holiday)

Edward c. redding



So I walk a little too fast and I drive a little too fast

And Im reckless its true, but what else can you do at the

End of a love affair?



So I talk a little too much, and I laugh a little too much

And my voice is too loud, when Im out in a crowd

So that people are apt to stare



Do they know, do they care, that its only that Im lonely

And low as can be?

And the smile on my face isnt really a smile at atll!



So I smoke a little too much, and I drink a little too much

And the tunes I request are not always the best

But the ones where the trumpets blare!



So I go at a maddening pace, and I pretend that its taking

Your place

But what else can you do, at the end of a love affair
