Sam & Dave - I Can't Stand Up for Falling Down

I'm the living result
Of a man who's been hurt a little too much
Now 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
Yet it confused me
Why I'm not loved the way I should be
Listen I've lived with heartaches
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

I can't stand up for falling down
I can't stand up for falling down
