Gonna Get Along Without You Now
She & Him Lyrics

Uh huh hm hm
Gonna get along without you now
Uh huh hm hm
Gonna get along without you now

You told me I was the neatest thing
You even asked me to wear your ring
You ran around with every girl in town
You didn't even care if it got me down

Uh huh hm hm
Gonna get along without you now
Uh huh hm hm
Gonna get along without you now

You told everybody that we were friends
But this is where our friendship ends
Because all of a sudden you changed your tune
You haven't been around since way last June

Uh huh hm hm
Gonna get along without you now
Uh huh hm hm
Gonna get along without you now

So long my honey goodbye my dear

Uh huh hm hm
Gonna get along without you now
Uh huh hm hm
Gonna get along without you now

You told everybody that we were friends
But this is where our friendship ends
Because all of a sudden you changed your tune
You haven't been around since way last June

Uh huh hm hm
Gonna get along without you now
Uh huh hm hm
Gonna get along without you now

So long my honey goodbye my dear

I ADORE this song, and Zooey's version. "Then you ran around with every girl in town, and you didn't even care if it got me down." and that sucked, but I got along fine without you before, so i'll get along without you now. Thank you, S&H!

qnasty67

zorenxam

This song is so much older than Zoe this is a great song about her who the hell sings it Zoe does it proud

John

Its like Zooey vs Ben. Pretty even battle, however, Ben has postal service. And Death Cab... yeah he wins

Edna Callegari Baldini

Que voz feia

Radioman Demmer

Back in 7th grade, we had an old chorus teacher who had us perform this live in front of the school. For some reason I started humming this song and had to look it up.

nauort23

I've been thinking, "Mazzy Star" a lot, listening to Zooey's voice. She's like a cross between Hope S. and Doris Day, with a little Deborah Harry thrown in. Actually, she's just like Zooey, but I'm old and she's triggering a lot of memories of past loves.

emerald764

I don't think it's exaggerating to say that Zooey Deschanel is one of the coolest people on the planet.

Edu ML

if angels exist, i think at least they have zoeey's deschanel voice...

SassafrasLass

Just found a 50s song "Gonna Get Along Without You Now" by Teresa Brewer. The lyrics aren't quite the same as She & Him but I found myself singing "Ah ha, mmm hmmm" along with it. Totally different style of course but it was cute too.

Eh, decent enough version. I can't listen to too much of Zooey's voice. Patience and Prudence's version is my fav.

Jamison Cooper

Meh. Skeeter Davis’s version is the best in my opinion.

Jan Andersen

Skeeter Davies 1964 and Viola Wills 1979 are my favorites.

I did like this song until I understood lirics (my listening skill is not too good xd). I thought this is happy song about something... um.. happy. You know, world is beautifull, sky is blue, birds are flying, nice, chill melody, calm vocal and then I understood this is song about the girl who dont want to be with him anymore and she is free, he was a dickhead etc. When I understood this, all grace of this song has popped... So, "You told everybody that we were friends, But this is where our friendship ends". Bye.

Maybe this will help restore your ability to enjoy this song. Yes, there is an amazing contrast between the sunniness of the melody and the bitterness of the words. I hear this as being truly over a bad relationship, ready once again to enjoy the good that life will bring. She's not looking for revenge, she's not filled with grim determination to make things different, she's not obsessed or still sorting out mixed feelings. She just recognizes that she's on a different track now, one where she gets along fine and things tend to work out OK. The bitter words are where she's been and the music is how she is right now.
