With my head in my pillow And my back turned to him So he can't see The tears I promised him I wouldn't cry Are falling down my cheeks. It's just knowing that he's going That's tearing the heart Right out of me Life and love go hand in hand And that's how it is with him and me Loving him the way I do It hurts to face the way things have to be For with tomorrow's sunset All that I'll have left is memories. It's just knowing that he's going That's tearing the heart right out of me A women's heart goes with her man And that's how it is with him and me. We can't change circumstances The things that have to be Just have to be So the tears I promised him I wouldn't cry I'll hide so he can't see. And when he takes me in his arms Holds me tight and says goodbye to me All my love will go with him For that's how it is with him and me. That's how it is with him and me.
