|
Only him or me
|
by Townes Van Zandt

|
Don't go saying I'm leaving you
|
thinking I never got close enough to stay
|
time runs in, and then runs out
|
starts again and it's always been that way
|
you're gonna drown tomorrow
|
if you cry to many tears for yesterday
|
tomorrow's half of all you've got
|
so treat him good, 'cause when I'm gone, he'll stay
|
|
I won't be forgetting you
|
you won't be forgetting me, I know
|
if memory comes a summer cloud
|
rains her sweetness down to me below
|
I see you like you look right now
|
maybe wonder why I had to go
|
but heaven is the way she is
|
rain falls and rivers flow
|
|
So here's to feelin' good
|
here's to feelin' bad
|
here's to bein' thankful
|
sorry for the pleasures that we had
|
and autumn days and window panes
|
God, forgive us if you feel decieved
|
the clock don't know you like I do
|
and it's only him or me you got to believe
|
|
