You broke my heart so many times I can't count the pieces Everytime you push me down It seems my strength increases How many times do you have to cry While people stand there gawking How many times do you have to fall Before you end up walking I tried to give you all I had To prove that I'm not bluffing They say it's a man with nothing to lose Who ends up losing nothing My head's full of scheming schemes My tongue's tied up with talking How many times do you have to fall Before you end up walking I tried to give you all I had I thought my love was strong I thought that I could treat you right How did I treat you wrong O won't you even open the door To see the wares I'm hawking How many times do you have to fall Before you end up walking O won't you give me one more chance I couldn't do no worse Empty out my heart for you Before it has to burst I'm too hungry not to win But you're the game I'm stalking How many times do you have to fall Before you end up walking
