How many years
Keep on slipping away
And it seems that your life doesn`t matter
You never had a chance
How many ways is a love torn apart
And you look to your heart
For some answers
Don`t let it slip away
Can`t blame myself anymore
I`ve been beaten and accused before
Well I took some bad advice
And I paid too high a price
I could sell my soul
You know I wouldn`t think twice
How many times must a man fall down
I said whoa-oh-oh oh-oh-oh oh
How many dreams have to fall to the ground
It goes on an` on an` on an` on an` on yeah
How many times do you look for some sign
That there`s hope
And your life has some meaning
Almost every day
Maybe I was born to wander
I got no high hopes any longer
So tell me my friend
Just where does it end
Is nothin` ever gonna free me
From this hell I`m livin` in
How many times must a man fall down
I said whoa-oh-oh oh-oh-oh oh
How many dreams have to fall to the ground
It goes on an` on an` on an` on an` on yeah
(Instrumental break)
Can`t blame myself anymore
I`ve been beaten and accused before
So tell me my friend
Just where does it end
I`m sick and tired
Of livin` in a rat race that no one ever wins
How many times must a man fall down
I said whoa-oh-oh oh-oh-oh oh
How many dreams have to fall to the ground
It goes on an` on an` on an` on an` on yeah
