How many times
Shane Minor Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

In this life, from time to time
There are lessons that we just refuse to learn
In my life, girl you are mine
I'm so lost in love I cannot find the point of no return
Do I really believe I could ever let you go
Am I looking for an answer that I don't want to know

How many times can one heart break
How many times do I make the same mistake
When every goodbye just gets harder to take
Tell me how many times can this one heart break

In my heart, do I lie
When I convince myself no one can take your place
I should run, and Lord knows I've tried
But the thought of life without you is impossible to face
Why do I feel like I've been here before
'Cause I'm the kind of fool who keeps running back for more

How many times can one heart break
How many times do I make the same mistake
When every goodbye just gets harder to take
Tell me how many times can this one heart break

What kind of love am I lost in
What kind of love can this be
You can lift me up halfway to Heaven
And leave me back down on my knees

How many times can one heart break
How many times do I make the same mistake




When every goodbye just gets harder to take
Tell me how many times can this one heart break
