all i hear lyrics

How many lives must I live?
How many lies must I hear?
How many times must I feel so blue?
How many times must I lose you?

All I hear now
Is the sound of my heart
Breaking down, losing ground

How many bridges must I burn?
How many lessons must I learn?
How many times must I ask you to stay?
How many times will you push me out of your way?

All I hear now
Is the sound of my heart
Breaking down, losing ground

All I hear now
Is the sound of my heart
Losing ground, slowing down

Maybe somebody will show me a better way
Maybe somebody will know me, someday

How many times must I hear your voice?
Inside my dreams and over answering machines
You're always there and everywhere in between

All I hear now
Is the sound of my heart slowing down
Can you hear the sound?

All I hear now
Is the sound of my heart
Leaving town, breaking down
Slowing down, losing ground
Breaking down and stopping here

All I hear now
All I hear now
