How Many Tears?

(album: Part Of The Game - 1979)

How many times have I told you
Love can just walk away?
Just when you think it's found you
It hasn't got a thing to say
And so you feel that no one really cares
And you conceal that your heart
Was never there

Oh, how
Many tears
Will it take
'Til you hear?
Oh, how
Many lies
Win the race
Get the prize?

You say you'll beat the masters
Playing at their own game
But you've got to look for the answers
And learn to accept the blame
There is a time when all of us are scared
But don't buy the lines 'cause the price

Is so unfair

Oh, how
Many tears
Will it take
'Til you hear?
Oh, how
Many lies
Win the race
And get the prize?

Come to me
I'll be here
With the love
To dry your tears

There is a time when all of us are scared
But you'll lose your mind if you just
Let fear keep you there

Can anybody tell me
How
Many tears
Will it take
'Til you hear? (I wanna know)
How
Many lies (how many lies)
Win the race
And get the prize?

Oh, how
Many tears
Will it take
'Til you hear?
Oh, how
Many lies
Win the race
Get the prize?
