What a fool I was
What dominated fool
To think that you were
The Earth and sky
What a fool I was
What an elevated fool
What a mutton headed dote was I
No my reverberating friend
You are not a beginning and the end
You impetant hussy
There's not an idea in your head
Or a word in your mouth
That I haven't put there
There'll be spring
Every year without you
England still will be here without you
There'll be fruit on the tree
And a shore by the sea
There'll be crumpets and tea without you
Art and music will thrive without you
Somehow Keats will survive without you
And there still will be rain on
That plain down in Spain
Even that will remain without you
I can do without you
You dear friend
Who taught so well
You can go to Hartford
Hereford and Hampshire
They can still rule the land without you
Windsor Castle will stand without you
And without much ado we can
All muddle through without you
You brazen hussy
Without pulling it the tide comes in
Without your twirling it
The Earth can spin
Without your pushing them
The clouds roll by
If they can do without you
Ducky so can I
I will not feel alone without you
I can stand on my own without you
So go back in your shell
I can do bloody well without
By George I really did it
I did it I did it
I said I'd make a woman
And indeed I did
I knew that I could do it
I knew it I knew it
I said I'd make a woman
And succeed I did
Eliza you're magnificent
Without You - 窈 窕 淑 女
