It Takes Too Long To Learn To Live Alone - Peggy Lee (佩吉·李)[00:00:01]
I leave the house, I lock the door,[00:00:13]
And go to work, the way I did before,[00:00:17]
The same routine most every day,[00:00:24]
Except I guess, I see my folks much more.[00:00:28]
A year has passed, I thought by now that[00:00:35]
I could make a new life of my own,[00:00:40]
But habits are so hard to break,[00:00:46]
I think of you and I still ache,[00:00:51]
It takes too long to learn to live alone.[00:00:57]
It's really bad when Friday comes,[00:01:08]
Because I know the weekend lies ahead,[00:01:12]
The walks we took, the football games,[00:01:19]
And when it rains how late we stayed in bed.[00:01:23]
I've done so much to change the house,[00:01:30]
The attic's full of memories that I've known,[00:01:34]
And yet, when I turn out the light,[00:01:39]
I wait for you to say goodnight,[00:01:47]
It takes too long to learn to live alone.[00:01:52]
I go on dates but when I do[00:02:03]
I always find, before the night is through,[00:02:07]
The same old thing behind my smile,[00:02:13]
I'm sitting there comparing him to you.[00:02:19]
In the end it's always you,[00:02:23]
I feel it even more when I come home,[00:02:29]
I thought that I was free of you,[00:02:37]
But I was wrong, I never knew[00:02:42]
It takes too long to learn to live alone[00:02:48]
