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, 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
