How Many Times

...HOW MANY TIMES... by Cat Stevens

*from 'Foreigner' (1973)*

Intro:

Verse 1:

How many times, must I get up,

Look out and see the same old view... view?

How many times, must I wear the same old things,

And hear the same old things that I do, I do?

Verse 2:

How many times, must I clean this face, my face?

And how many times, must I shine my shoes? Oh woah.

Lord, how many times, must I drink the same old drink,

And dream the same old dreams, that I do? Be-cause I...

I know, one thing;

Chorus 1:

There ain't nothing that could ever ease the pain.

But for your... line, and mine, mmm, mmm.

I want that loving a-gain, a-gain.

Interlude:

Verse 3:

How many times, must I pass your place, your place?

And how many times, must I follow you, you?

How many times, must I see the same old things,

When all I should be seeing is you?

Chorus 2:

I know, one thing;

There ain't nothing that could ever ease the pain.

But for your... line, and mine.

I want that loving a-gain, a-gain.

Interlude:

Again, must I follow you...?

Must I wear the same old thing?
