Everybody asks if I still love you and if you're still on my mind
They ask me to tell 'em 'bout my broken heart and I tell 'em that I'm feeling fine
I lie a little bit and I proudly say our book of love is closed
And your memory never bothers me and when it does it comes and goes

It comes and goes all right
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

Everybody asks 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 laughing 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 thing it kinda just comes and goes

It comes and goes all right
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 goesChorus

I tell 'em that it comes and goes 
I tell 'em that it comes and goes
