Lyric 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
