how long can a man be strong

I've been a restless,

for a long, long time

Tryin' to find a home

for this heart of mine

The nights are lonely,

and the days are long

It’s hard to find a reason,

to carry on

But all this searchin',

is it ever gonna end?

Must I keep on losin',

again and again?

Tell me, how long can a man be strong?

How long must he carry on,

without the love of a woman,

to call his own?

Tell me, how long can a man be strong ?

It’s on every man’s mind,

to find that special girl

Some of them getta lucky

But I'm alone in this world

Still I know she’s out there somewhere

so I’m gonna keep on tryin’

Someday I’m gonna find her,

it’s just a matter of time

As long as I’ve been waiting,

I know she’s been waiting, too

Hold on a little longer,

I’m all the way to you

Now ever since this world began,

it takes a woman to make a man

Now I need someone!

Don’t you know I need someone?

Ooh

But all this searchin’,

is it ever gonna end?

Must I keep on losin’,

again and again and again?

Yeah

Oh keep on waiting

Oh noooo

Yeah
