One Less Bell To Answer
[Lyrics of "One Less Bell To Answer"]
[Verse 1]
One less bell to answer
One less egg to fry
One less man to pick up after
I should be happy, but all I do is cry
I should be happy
I only know that since he left
My life's so empty
[Chorus]
Though I try to forget
It just can't be done
The doorbell rings, still run
I don't know how in the world to stop thinking of him
'Cause I still love him so
I end each day the way I start out
Crying my heart out
[Verse 2]
One less bell to answer
One less egg to fry
One less man to pick up after
No more laughter, no more love
Since he went away
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
Though I try to forget
It just can't be done
The doorbell rings, still run
I don't know how in the world to stop thinking of him
'Cause I still love him so
I end each day the way I start out
Crying my heart out
[Bridge]
One less bell to answer
One less egg to fry
One less man to pick up after
No more laughter, no more love
Since he went away, mm
[Outro]
Ah-ah-ah, ah
Ah
