How Long Can a Man Be Strong Songtext
I′ve been a restless,
For a long, long time
Tryin' to find a home
For heart of mine
The nights are lonely,
And the days are long
It′s hard to find a reason,
To carry on
But all this searchin',
Is it ever gonna end?
Must I keep on losin',
Again and again?
Tell me, how long can a man be strong?
How long must he carry on,
Without the love of a woman,
To call his own?
Tell me, how long can a man be strong?
It′s on every man′s mind,
To find that special girl
Some of them getta lucky
But I'm alone in this world
Still I know she′s out there somewhere
So I'm gonna keep tryin′
Someday I'm gonna find her,
It′s just a matter of time
As long as I've been waiting,
I know she's been waiting, too
Hold on a little longer,
I′m all the way to you
Now ever since this world began,
It takes a woman to make a man
Now I need someone!
Don′t you know I need someone?
Ooh
But all this searchin',
Is it ever gonna end?
Must I keep on losin′,
Again and again and again?
Yeah
Oh keep on waiting
Oh noooo
Yeah
For a long, long time
Tryin' to find a home
For heart of mine
The nights are lonely,
And the days are long
It′s hard to find a reason,
To carry on
But all this searchin',
Is it ever gonna end?
Must I keep on losin',
Again and again?
Tell me, how long can a man be strong?
How long must he carry on,
Without the love of a woman,
To call his own?
Tell me, how long can a man be strong?
It′s on every man′s mind,
To find that special girl
Some of them getta lucky
But I'm alone in this world
Still I know she′s out there somewhere
So I'm gonna keep tryin′
Someday I'm gonna find her,
It′s just a matter of time
As long as I've been waiting,
I know she's been waiting, too
Hold on a little longer,
I′m all the way to you
Now ever since this world began,
It takes a woman to make a man
Now I need someone!
Don′t you know I need someone?
Ooh
But all this searchin',
Is it ever gonna end?
Must I keep on losin′,
Again and again and again?
Yeah
Oh keep on waiting
Oh noooo
Yeah
