How Many Tears Lyrics

BERTRANDE:
Oh Lord, I'm not the one to blame!
Oh Lord, why must I live in shame?
Each night, I light a candle in his name.

How many tears through the years can I cry?
How many prayers to the Lord must I try?
Still the pain, tears at my broken heart.
Sometimes I feel, I was cursed from the start.

All I could hope, all I could see.
So full of promise, each day reaching out before me.
Once, now theres nothing, lost as if you never saw me.

How many tears through the years can I cry?
How many tears until my heart runs dry?
Through the fights, that a woman must fight.
Only to do what she feels must be right.

Sometimes I wonder, if some hears.
Why must I live through so many tears.
