How Many Times

How many times will you fall
And stand alone with your back to the wall
How many times will it take
Till you crawl out from behind your mistake
How many points did you win today
How many times will you grow up all the way
What is it you want to hear from me
Dont think of running out of sympathy
I dont know what you expected I cant get into your shoes
The minute you decide youre gonna take that ride
Theres a change you might win but then again you might loose
I never said it be easy not ever gave guarantees
The things you have to do are mostly up to you
And I wouldnt stop you I couldnt even if I tried
Come on and give me that smile
I like to think you are worth my while
How many points did you win today
How many times will you grow up all the way
What is it you want to hear from me
Dont think of running out of sympathy
You dont get something for nothing they dont give it away
You want to do whats right you got to stand and fight
And dont pay much attention to the empty things they say
Life can be something you suffered
Something you can endure
When I combine the two I still come up with you
Standing before me with fire in your eyes
Come on and give me that smile
I like to think your worth my while
How many points did you win today
How many times will you grow up all the way
What is it you want to hear from me
Dont think of running out of sympathy
How many times will you fall
And stand alone with your back to the wall
How many times will it take
Till you crawl out from behind your mistake
How many points did you win today
How many times will you grow up all the way
