You Learn to Live Without Original Broadway Cast of If/Then (Ft. Idina Menzel)

[Beth]
You learn to take your coffee black
You learn to drink your whiskey neat
You learn to take your shower cold
And sleep on tired feet

You learn to order dinner in
You learn to send the laundry out
You learn how to amuse yourself
You learn to live without

You tell yourself you’re rich at last in money and in time
You draw a bath and then unplug the phone
You pour yourself a Pinot Clo Du Val 2003
You sit a spell a queen upon her throne
You go to bed alone

[Liz]
You learn to fall asleep alone
You learn to silence ticking clocks
You learn to pull the shades at night
And double-check the locks

You learn to speak so calmly when
Your heart would like to scream and shout
You learn to stop and breathe and smile
You learn to live without
