Lyrics
I'm the living result
Of a man who's been hurt a little too much
And I've tasted the bitterness of my own tears
Sadness is all my lonely heart can feel
I can't stand up for falling down
I can't stand up for falling down
Simple though love is still it confused me
Why I'm not loved the way I should be
Now I've lived with heartaches (ooh-ooh), and I've roomed with fear
I've dealt with despair, and I've wrestled with tears
I can't stand up for falling down
I can't stand up for falling down
The vow that we made
You broke it in two
But that don't stop me
From loving you
And I can't stand up for falling down
I can't stand up for falling down (ooh-ooh)
Writer(s): Homer Banks, Allen Alvoid Jr. Jones
