[Verse 1]
I went into town to see you yesterday
But you were not home
So I talked to some old friends for a while
Before I wandered off alone

[Chorus]
It's so hard for me now
But I'll make it somehow
Though I know I'll never be the same
Won't you ever change your ways
It's so hard to make love pay
When you're on the losing end
And I feel that way again

[Verse 2]
Well, I miss you more than ever
Since you've gone, I can hardly maintain
Things are different round here every night
My tears fall down like rain

[Chorus]
It's so hard for me now
But I'll make it somehow
Though I know I'll never be the same
Won't you ever change your ways
It's so hard to make love pay
When you're on the losing end
And I feel that way again
Well light that pipe

Won't you ever change your ways

And I feel that way again
