How Many Times

How many times can you step? How many times can you step On a stone Before that stone showed some signs That it's been walked on? How much water can you pour? How much water can you pour In a boat Before that boat begin, oh, begin to sink? And I'm going down fast I can count on my fingers The times you've shown me so much disrespect You do more for a total stranger My faith is dying from too much neglect I wanna know how many, many, many How many times, must I try? How many times, must I try? Try to light, light a candle in the wind How many times do you think That I'll come crawling, oh, back again? How many, how many, how many How many times? How many times? Ooh I've got to know right now How many times must I cry? How many times? How many times, ooh Do you think I'll come crawling back to you? On my bended knees, yeah How many times? Yeah
