Kris Kristofferson - How Many Days Lyrics

Kris Kristofferson Lyrics

"How Many Days"
(from "Ghost Brothers of Darkland County" soundtrack)

How many days can one man wonder
How many years can one man carry on
If I was tough, could my fist harness the thunder
If I was stronger, could I roll these days along
How many days, how many days
How much time can one man spend trying
How many lies could that one man tell
If I was smart, why would I try to tame the lion
If it meant I lost myself to burn in hell
How many days, how many days
If I believed there's a better world waiting
Is that belief framed in ignorance and fear
Is blind faith our only salvation
Or is the plain truth always sittin' right here
How many days, how many days
How many days can one man wonder
How many years can one man carry on
How many days, how many days
How many days, how many days
