The Proclaimers - How Many Times lyrics

rate me

Well it takes a long time

To find the right woman

The best one there is

Not the best you can do

It takes a long time

To find the right woman

Some men never do

I spent half my life

Lying to girls

Who were looking for love

Where it didn't exist

The rest of the time

I was worrying myself

About what it was that I'd missed

[CHORUS]

How many times

I don't know, I don't know

How many times

I don't know but when it happened my heart started to go...

Ooh-aah, ooh-aah

Ooh-aah, ooh-aah

I didn't trust you

From the moment I saw you

I didn't trust you

And I know it was right

But my head and my heart

Have been fighting a battle

And my heart started winning last night

[CHORUS]

Well I'm bored by pain and I'm tired of sorrow

Give me the word and I'll leave here tomorrow

I don't giva a damn about anything else

The rest of the world can go and hang themselves

ooh-aah....(etc.)
