Ah the living ain't easy

With all of these false emotions

Too little devotion

And I'm tired of just

Being alone, she's just not the same

She's a son of a gun, she's a red hot flame

She lights the sun and conjures up the rain

Like any good gambler

I was chained to a wishing well

I keep wishing in vain

But listen friend

Don't look now, she's right behind you

Looking for someone to take her inside

It thrills her so, it's a rainbow ride

I'm a little uneasy

And there ain't much pride inside me

She don't know how it hurts

And I'm telling you

It's too late now, she's not the same

She's a red hot kid, she's a crying shame

Anytime is the right time

To get on with a new tomorrow

But I could never let yesterday go

And when the falling rain makes me sad

She comes to me in the dreams I've had

In the morning light, in the dead of night

Ah the lovin' ain't easy

An' I let it get the best of me

She don't know how it hurts

And I'm telling you

It's too late now, she don't talk no more

She don't make me feel like she did before

There's too much wait and too much give and take

I'm a little uneasy

And there ain't much pride inside me

She don't know how it hurts

And I'm telling you it's

Too late now, she's just not the same

It's too late now, she's not the same

It's too late now, she's not the same
