Lyrics for The Losing End (When You're On)

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 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 losin' end And I feel that way again 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 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 losin' end And I feel that way again 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 losin' end And I feel that way again
