How Many Times Must I Fall
How many times must I fall
Till you finally hear my pleas
Must I fall for all eternity
For you to believe me
Your smile is like the sun
Your eyes are like the moon
But to you I’m just a shadow
That you cast on a warm afternoon
We’ve known each other for years
Always side by side
But every compliment I tell you
Just seems to fly by
And as the years pass
And another comes along
I fall away forgotten
Like the shadows on a wall
And when fall comes and goes
And your frown begins to grow
I walk alongside you
Just a friend among the snow
How many years has passed
Since I first had known
Too many years to count
Even I don’t know
How many times must I fall
For you to see me as me
And even though I know the answer
It isn’t one I can accept easily
Because the answer I’ve been looking for
Is that you’ll always only see me as a friend
