Billie Holiday - The End Of A Love AffairSo I walk a little too fast and I drive a little too fastAnd I'm reckless it's true, but what else can you doAt the end of a love affair?So I talk a little too much and I laugh a little too muchAnd my voice is too loud when I'm out in a crowdSo that people are apt to stareDo they know, do they care, that it's only that I'm lonelyAnd low as can be?And the smile on my face isn't really a smile at allSo I smoke a little too much and I drink a little too muchAnd the tunes I request, aren't always the bestBut the ones where the trumpets blareSo I go at a maddening pace, and I pretend that it's taking his placeBut what else can you doAt the end of a love affair?Do they know, do they care, that it's only that I'm lonelyAnd low as can be?And the smile on my face isn't really a smile at allSo I smoke a little too much and I drink a little too muchAnd the tunes I request aren't always the bestBut the ones where the trumpets blareSo I go at a maddening pace, and I pretend that it's taking his placeBut what else can you doAt the end of a love affair?
