Jeannie C. Riley - That's How It Is with Him and Me Lyrics

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.
