All I Hear

How many lives must I live?

How many lies must I hear?

How many times must I feel so blue?

How many times must I lose you?



All I hear now

Is the sound of my heart breakin' down

Or losing ground.



How many bridges must I burn?

How many lessons must I learn?

How many times must I ask you to stay?

How many times will you push me out of your way?



All I hear now

Is the sound of my heart breaking down

Losing ground

All I hear now

Is the sound of my heart losing ground

Slowing down.



Maybe somebody will show me a better way

Maybe somebody will know me some day

How many times must I hear your voice?

Inside my dreams, your answering machine

You're always there and everywhere in between.



All I hear now

Is the sound of my heart slowing down

Can ya hear the sound?

All I hear now

Is the sound of my heart leaving town, breakin' down

Slowin' down, losin' ground, breakin' down, and stopping here.



All I hear now

All I hear now.
