It Comes And Goes Lyrics - Connie Smith

(Tell 'em that it comes and goes) 

Everybody asks me if I still love you and if you're still on my mind 

They ask me to tell 'em bout my broken heart I tell 'em that I'm feelin' fine 

I lie a little bit and I proudly say our book of love is closed 

And your memory seldom bothers me and when it does it comes and goes 

It comes and goes all right it comes every morning and it goes all night 

I say with lotta pride and I haven't really lied I just tell 'em that it comes and goes 

(Tell 'em that it comes and goes) 

Everybody asks me if I cried when you left and if I've cried for you since 

They hope I have so they can all get together and laughin' up at my expense 

So I lie a little bit and I proudly say not one teardrop flows 

When there is a little pain it's not a constant pain it kinda just comes and goes 

It comes and goes all right... 

I tell 'em that it comes and goes
