How many

by Carol Chambers   Jun 1, 2004


How many times can your heart be broken
until there's nothing left to break?
How many times can you give love
that some-one just won't take ?
How many times can you want some-one
with your heart open wide ?
How many times before you learn
that love is simply not for you ?
How many times must you be hurt
be shattered and left so blue ?
Why must you need to love some-one
Why not just be alone ?
Why must you forget that it ends
the same when their love for you is gone ?
Is there some masochistic wish to hurt some more ?
Why must you be a fool ?
'Love' is not just a word
but a state of life
that's heartless and cruel,
So how many times must you learn
this lesson,
That life has taught you so well ?
How many times before you know life's
heaven is lose ?
and you reside in hell...
