Sometimes we win, sometimes we lose,
A broken heart leaves you battered and bruised.
Sometimes we rise, so often we fall,
When you're down who do you call?

As we tumble, on and on,
We fall down, we fall down.
As we tumble, on and on,
We fall down, we fall down.

The wicked things we say,
The hurtful games we play.
So much argument, and so much dissent.
We used to be so strong,
So tell me what went wrong?
Why can't we get along?
Tell me, my friend, what went wrong?

As we tumble, on and on,
We fall down, we fall down.
As we tumble, on and on,
We fall down, we fall down.

It's love we need.
How good and pleasant it would be,
To dwell in perfect unity.
Love we need.
So let us come together.
And learn to love each other.

As we tumble, on and on,
We fall down, we fall down.
As we tumble, on and on,
We fall down, we fall down.

The wicked things we say,
The hurtful games we play.
So much argument, and so much dissent.
We used to be so strong,
So tell me what went wrong?
Why can't we get along?
Tell me, my friend, what went wrong?

As we tumble, on and on,
We fall down, we fall down.
As we tumble, on and on,
We fall down, we fall down.

It's love we need.
How good and pleasant it would be,
To dwell in perfect unity.
Love we need.
So let us come together.
And learn to love each other.

As we tumble, on and on,
We fall down, we fall down.
As we tumble, on and on,
We fall down, we fall down.
