The End of a Love Affair Lyrics

Billie Holiday

So I walk a little too fast and I drive a little too fast And I'm reckless it's 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 I'm out in a crowd So that people are apt to stare
Do they know, do they care, that it's only that I'm lonely And low as can be? And the smile on my face isn't really a smile at all
So I smoke a little too much and I drink a little too much And the tunes I request, aren't always the best But the ones where the trumpets blare
So I go at a maddening pace, and I pretend that it's taking his place But what else can you do At the end of a love affair?
Do they know, do they care, that it's only that I'm lonely And low as can be? And the smile on my face isn't really a smile at all
So I smoke a little too much and I drink a little too much And the tunes I request aren't always the best But the ones where the trumpets blare
So I go at a maddening pace, and I pretend that it's taking his place But what else can you do At the end of a love affair?
