Cover art for Only Him or Me lyrics by Townes Van Zandt

'But heaven is the way she is/ rain falls and and rivers flow'. A song about a break up with no other reason than he's feelings aren't what they were and he has no way of ezplaining it. Nothing bitter about it, just that the magic has gone and there is no other option but to move on but he can still see the beauty in the x and that's the heartbreaking feature of the tune.
