Him Lyrics

Artist: Rupert Holmes

Him
Rupert Holmes

Over by the window, there's a pack of cigarettes.
Not my brand you understand,
Sometimes the girl forgets
She forgets to hide them
I know who left those smokes behind
She'll say, oh, he's just a friend,
And I'll say, oh, I'm not blind
to..

(chorus)
Him him him, what's she gonna do about him?
She's gonna have to live without him,
It's him or it's me, me me,
No one gets to get it for free
It's me or it's him.

Don't know what he looks like,
Don't know who he is.
Don't know why she thought that I
would say what's mine is his.
I dont want to own her,
But I can't let her have it both ways.
Three is one too many of us,
She leaves with me or stays
with..

(chorus)

Him him him, what's she gonna do about Him?
She's gonna have to live without him,
It's him or it's me, me me,
No one gets to get it for free
It's me or it's him.

If she wants him she can have him,
Just exactly how we once were,
Its goodbye to he and I,
and back to me and her,
Without..

(chorus)
Him, him, him, what's she gonna do about him?
She's gonna have to live without him,
It's him or it's me, me, me,
No one gets to get it for free,
Time for me to make the girl see,
It's me or it's him.

(repeat chorus)

Wrong lyrics in the chorus!

It should be..."She's gonna have to do without him,or do without me, me, me".

But thanks for posting anyway, great song!...

Somebody knows. When was this song released?, Great song I remember the TV. Programm: "M�sica Joven" with Pilar Cox and Coto Espinoza. Santiago de Chile.

Something happens in you life and bang! a song comes into your head from nowhere. I have not thought of this record in ages but the story line is similar but no fags involved and there is no ultimatum. hopefully him is going to have to do without her her her!

Can anybody help me understand what the writer means when he says: "No one gets to get it for free" Is he implying that no one is going to get away with it? thanks in advanced!

by Bill K. on 9/20/2012 2:26pm
You have to be kidding me! That is one of the worst songs of all time!
The lyrics mean nothing.

by Jeaniebunz on 12/10/2012 5:12pm
Funny that the lyrics in this song sound like a jealous guy, when in Escape all he sounds like he wants to do is cheat. haha.

by Luis on 1/7/2013 12:13pm
Fabulous song! But there are a few mistakes in the lyrics. "she's gonna have to DO without him or DO without me, me, me", thank you very much! :)

by Jimmy on 1/25/2013 2:08pm
Good song. Go away haters. You suck.

by mauricio on 2/28/2013 11:24pm
me encanta esta canción pues aunque se trata de la decisión que una chava debe tomar para decidirse por 2 cuates, yo estoy seguro que todos salimos ganando

by Lori on 3/11/2013 3:57pm
I heard this song for the first time on sirius radio love songs driving home from my boyfriend`s and I loved it instantly! The lyrics and emotion in his voice got to me and I cant get enough of this song it gets to me everytime I hear it.
