[Intro]
Well, I didn't know it would come to this
But that's what happens when you're on your own
And you're all right with letting nice things go

[Verse 1]
Well, I pawned the earrings that you gave me
Gold and made of flowers dangling
And I almost cried as I sold them all
And I don't mind living on bread and oranges, oh, oh
But I gotta get to and from where I come
And it's gonna take money to go

[Chorus]
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh

[Verse 2]
In the name of higher consciousness
I let the best man I know go
'Cause it's nice to love and be loved
But it's better to know all you can know
Yeah, it's nice to love and be loved
But I'd rather know what God knows

[Chorus]
Oh no, oh no, oh no, no, no no, oh

[Outro]
Well, I didn't know it would come to this
But that's what happens when you're on your own
And you're all right with letting nice things go
