Every now and then

I begin again

I push the rock up the mountain

Though I'm learning slow

Now I think I know

How to step aside

When the rock begins to slide



[Chorus:]

Down, down, down

To the bottom of the valley

Down, down, down

But I know it won't crush me anymore



Every now and then

I think I see a friend

I push the rock up the mountain

Ah, getting close to what I never knew

I just step aside

When the rock begins to slide



[Chorus]



Love's not a simple thing

If you're all alone

And finding someone to care

And when you reach him

He's not there

It slides



[Chorus]



Here I go again

Faith has time to lend

I push the rock up the mountain

Hope it won't be just

Another joke on me

But I just step aside

If the rock begins to slide



[Chorus x2]

[Fade]
