I Can't Stand Up For Falling Down

I Can't Stand Up For Falling Down - Elvis Costello & The Attractions

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 from falling down

I can't stand up from 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 and I've roomed with fear

I've dealt with despair and I've wrestled with tears

I can't stand up from falling down

I can't stand up from 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 from falling down

I can't stand up from falling down oh
