How Many Days of Sadness Songtext
von Dionne Warwick

How many days of sadness must I spend to get one day of gladness?
And tell me how much sorrow must I spend to get one bright tomorrow?

You must have good times just giving me bad times, must you always be so cruel?
You used to be so wonderful to me
Why did you change my happiness to misery and heartbreak?

How many days of sadness must I spend to get one day of gladness?
How long, how long must I be lonely? Tell me when will your heart want me only?


When will you take me, just take me and hold me
Oh yeah, hold me and with each breath that you take
Love me, tell me you are mine, want me ′til the end of time

(So many days living sadness)
(Where is my one day of gladness)

Love me, tell me you are mine, want me 'til the end of time
Oh, please love me, (how many days of-) how many days are lonely days?
(Tell me, tell me) when will you give me happiness?

(How many days of-) oh take away this misery
(Tell me, tell me) when will you give your love to me?
(How many-)
