Different Now

There's a song I've been singing

For twenty-nine years

Where I spill all my guts

To avoid all my tears

I say I don't mind it

But it's bringing me down

And I still love you

But it's different now

There's a heat of a summer

Stuck in my bones

So deep in my blood

Like it's all that I know

And I hate the idea

Of just hanging around

And I still love you

But it's different now

Goodbye is never not tough

Alright is just never enough

And you cry but I gotta get out

'Cause I tried

I love you, but it's different now

I tried, I love you

But it's different now

In the still of the morning

You're still on my mind

When I want you so bad

You get harder to find

So I pack up the boxes

Let the candles burn out

And I still love you

But it's different now

Goodbye is never not tough

Alright is just never enough

And you cry but I gotta get out

'Cause I tried

I love you, but it's different now

I tried, I love you

But it's different now

And it was magic

You were the blood in my veins

It's so tragic

The way a feeling can fade

And it breaks my heart

That I don't know why

Goodbye is never not tough

Alright is just never enough

And you cry but I gotta get out

'Cause I tried

I love you, but it's different now

Goodbye (Goodbye) is never not tough

Alright (Alright) is just never enough

And you cry (You cry) but I gotta get out

'Cause I tried

I love you, but it's different now

I tried

I love you, but it's different now

I tried, I love you

But it's different now
