Are you ever so silent
When she wanted to talk?
Or couldn't keep quiet
When she needed a hug?
Come on too strong
When a little's too much?
How many, how many, say I?
Go on and say yes
And really mean no?
Would you rather guess
When you just don't know?
And then say I love you
But aren't willing to show?
How many, how many, say I?
How many, how many, say I?

How many say I, how many say I?
How many say I, how many say I?

Say live and let live
So quick to judge?
Slow to forgive
When you're holding a grudge?
Don't always believe
All you need is love?
How many, how many, say I?
How many, how many, say I?
How many, how many, say I?

How many say I, how many say I?
How many say I, how many say I?
How many say I, how many say I?
How many say I, how many say I?

Have you ever looked down
When the homeless walked by?
Or changed the channel
When you saw a hungry child?
Know something to be true
And then deny it
How many, how many, say I?
How many, how many, say I?
How many, how many, say I?

How many say I, how many say I?
How many say I, how many say I?
How many say I, how many say I?
How many say I, how many say I?
