They tell me
When I've got my life on the line,
They're sorry
But they can't do a thing about it till tomorrow
I tell them
Now, I don't want a lot of your time
Maybe, they listen
Oh, but what do they know of my pain or my sorrow
Oooh, what will it cost you
After how many tears I've cried
How much longer must I try.
Questions, I have questions that need answers.
Directions and problems presenting themselves every day
Are bypassed
'Cause of somebody else's foolish or childish limitations
Rejections - many have I had in my way over a lifetime.
But I go on, yes, I do now, and try to overcome the bad vibrations
that I encounter every day of my life.
Oooh, what does it get you
Stealing somebody else's pride
How much longer must I cry.
Questions, I have questions that need answers.
Come back tomorrow, they say.
I can see all the things of which I've dreamed
If I dream them no longer-what will it mean?
Is god running on empty or is it just me?
Reflections
Of all I have wanted so long
Still are with me
As I ask myself, how much longer must I try?
Questions, I have questions that need answers.
how much longer must I try?
Come back tomorrow, they say.
