I Can't Stand Up For Falling Down Lyrics

[00:08.04] I'm the living result
[00:14.11] Of a man who's been hurt a little too much
[00:21.26] And I've tasted, the bitterness of my own tears
[00:28.18] Sadness is all my lonely heart can feel
[00:34.66] I can't stand up from falling down
[00:41.49] I can't stand up from falling down
[00:49.47] Simple though love is still it confused me
[00:55.85] Why I'm not loved the way I should be
[01:02.58] Now I've lived with heartaches and I've roomed with fear
[01:09.25] I've dealt with despair and I've wrestled with tears
[01:15.32] I can't stand up from falling down
[01:22.12] I can't stand up from falling down
[01:29.88] The vow that we made
[01:32.87] You broke it in two
[01:36.14] But that don't stop me
[01:39.16] From loving you
[01:42.55] I can't stand up from falling down
[01:49.54] I can't stand up from falling down, oh
[01:56.20]
