I’ll not cry, make a scene
Think of what might have been
I’ll just try to make you see
That without you
Life still is sweet to me

I’ll sugar coffee more
When you’re not here
More than I did before
So have no fear
I’ll never play
Your favourite melody
But turn my banjo to another key

I’ll sugar coffee more
When you’re not here
Sing like I did before
When you were near
My empty arms
Will never long for you
Your place will soon be filled
By someone new

I’ll be fine, come what may
Living just for each day
Time will fly and you will see
That without you
Life still is sweet to me

I’ll sugar coffee more
When you’re not here
More than I did before
So have no fear
One day is gone
I won’t pretend to see
Your things around are
What they used to be

I’ll sugar coffee more
When you’re not here
More than I did before
So have no fear

The world is mine
And now I’ve time to roam
But if you call, you know
That I’ll come home
