How Much Can A Man Really Take? |
How much can a man really take |
When he’s pushed himself too far? |
He knows that his mind is on the break |
And he’s trying to reach that star |
How many times have I seen him fall? |
How many times? |
Too many to recall |
Come on home |
He left his home in search of his soul |
A many miles he did travel |
Towards the East and distant shores |
For the mystery of life to unravel |
And many wondrous sights he did see |
While passing through those lands |
But he cast a shadow deep and long |
Across the moving sands |
How much can a man really take |
When he’s pushed himself too far? |
He knows that his mind is on the break |
And he’s trying to reach that star |
How many times have I seen him fall? |
How many times? |
Too many to recall |
Come on home |
Fate was about to deal him a card |
From the bottom of the pack |
And he met his end in fair Nepal |
With a dagger in his back |
So raise up your eyes and see |
That angel in the sky |
And remember when you’re searchin' for your soul |
You’re searchin' for to die |
How much can a man really take |
When he’s pushed himself too far? |
He knows that his mind is on the break |
And he’s trying to reach that star |
How many times have I seen him fall? |
How many times? |
Too many to recall |
Let’s go |
Oh yeah, come on home, come on home |
Got to get on home… |
