Van Zandt, Townes - Only Him Or Me Lyrics






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

    Can’t say I do particularly. Sure TVZ has a sound which is his and recognisable as such

    N.... V....

    I hear it too. This is just one of those songs though where the message is what matters the most, even if he went back to his basics for the melodies and chords.

    I somehow arrived here thanks to The Dude... ;)

  4. M.... C....

    So here's to feeling good and here's to feeling bad. Fucking ace. Bless him.

    You who were with me at the ships at mylae - that corpse you planted last year in your garden - has it begun to sprout? or has the sudden frost disturbed its bed? o keep the dog far hence that's friend to men, or with his nails he'll dig it up again. You - hypocrite lecteur! - mon sembable! - mon frere!

    i.e. to you who were with me when we found the butterflies and throughout that spring rain 2007
