Written by: Burt Bacharach and David Hal / Barbra Streisand

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

(Cry, cry, no more laughter)

I should be happy

(Oh, why did he go)

I only know that since he left

My life's so empty

Though I try to forget

It just can't be done

Each time the doorbell rings

I still run

I don't know how in the world

To stop thinking of him

Cause I still love him so

I spend each day the way I start out

Crying my heart out

(One less bell to answer)

I should be happy

(One less egg to fry)

One less man to pick up after

No more laughter, no more love

Since he went away

(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

He went away...
