Verse 1

  I've never known

  Many sunshiny days

  And things seldom work out

  They just don't come my way

  But I can be happy

  Just to say I've known you

  And to see you each morning

  Makes my day seem less blue

Chorus

  [1: For 2: And how] a false-hearted lover

  And a fair-weather friend

  Took all I own from me

  And sometimes

  Sometimes you just can't win

Bridge

  If I could live my life over

  If I could do it again

  I'd never chase women

  I'd try so hard not to sin

  But one thing's for certain

  I'd stay away from her door

  And you'd never find me

  Beggin' for more

Verse 2

Now that it's finished

My time is fast running out

I know I could never

Change my life about

What was started is ending

My sight is fast growing dim

But I cannot forget her

And I still think of him

[repeat chorus]

Coda

  I try so hard but sometimes

  / [end cold]

Sometimes you just can't win
