Right about the lyric change -but when I 1st heard him sing it in concert "pain that" sure did sound like 'pavement' to me. And he did not pronounce the "v" in 'ever' so I thought he used the contraction, e're. But then wondered if it could be "ere" as well.
Next time, again he didn't pronounce the "v" but two distinct syllables, for sure I was certain it was e're. But then I did pick up that he sang "pain that" and not pavement...but that imagery has always stuck with me and that's how I sing it. Since then too, I've heard him sing "ever"...with the "v".
