She's Not The Same Lyrics - Gordon Lightfoot

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 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 loving ain't easy 

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 not the same 

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

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