The End of a Love Affair - Nat "King" Cole
I'm seeking someone for advices
The situation isn't very nice
I find myself completely at a lost
My heart and not my mind is by
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 that all
So I smoke a little too much
And I joke 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 it's taking his place
But what else can you do at the end of a love affair
