Billie Holiday - The End of a Love Affair (Composite Takes 5-7)

[00:20.90] So I walk a little too fast and I drive a little too fast [00:35.41] And I'm reckless it's true, but what else can you do [00:43.12] At the end of a love affair? [00:49.33] So I talk a little too much and I laugh a little too much [01:03.53] And my voice is too loud when I'm out in a crowd [01:11.60] So that people are apt to stare [01:18.18] Do they know, do they care, that it's only that I'm lonely [01:28.07] And low as can be? [01:32.75] And the smile on my face isn't really a smile at all [01:44.81] So I smoke a little too much and I joke a little too much [01:59.63] And the tunes I request, are not always the best [02:06.14] But the ones where the trumpets blare [02:13.47] So I go at a maddening pace, and I pretend that it's taking his place [02:27.59] But what else can you do [02:32.18] At the end of a love affair? [03:08.20] Do they know, do they care, that it's only that I'm lonely [03:17.59] And low as can be? [03:22.57] And the smile on my face isn't really a smile at all [03:36.24] So I smoke a little too much and I drink a little too much [03:51.19] And the tunes I request are not always the best [03:58.29] But the ones where the trumpets blare [04:05.44] So I go at a maddening pace, and I pretend that it's taking his place [04:19.90] But what else can you do [04:25.37] At the end of a love affair? [05:17.39] So I walk a little too fast and I drive a little too fast [05:31.38] And I'm reckless it's true, but what else can you do [05:38.89] At the end of a love affair? [05:45.55] So I talk a little too much and I laugh a little too much [05:58.30] And my voice is too loud when I'm out in a crowd [06:06.41] So that people [06:51.79] So I walk a little too fast and I drive a little too fast [07:04.21] And I'm reckless it's true, but what else can you do [07:42.02] So I walk a little too fast and I drive a little too fast [07:54.61] And I'm reckless it's true, but what else can you do [08:01.64] At the end of a love affair?
