HARRY CONNICK, JR. - Only 'cause I Don't Have You lyrics

rate me

Turn off the music<br>Take down the signs<br>Pack up the boxes<br>Put away the wine<br>No toast for the future<br>No reward for the find<br><br>If looks could kill<br>This mirror would do<br>Only 'cause I don't have you<br><br>Don't bother with ovations<br>Leave off the fanfare<br>Let the candles melt down<br>Till the smoke's all that's there<br>Leave the veil in place<br>A tear, la mer<br>I could say it was nothing<br>Now that there's nothing new<br>Only 'cause I don't have you<br><br>Not built on a wisp or whim<br>Twist an arm, break a leg<br>Tear me limb from limb<br>If there's a point you've made it<br>If there's a fare I've paid it<br><br>Later on good wishes<br>Later on good try<br>I'm afraid won't do<br>It's not justified<br>You go from the privy<br>And you end up deprived<br>On top of the world<br>But still there's no view<br>Only 'cause I don't have you
