Every now and then
I begin again
I push the rock up the mountain
Though I´m learning slow

Now I think I know
How to step aside
When the rock begins to slide

Down, down, down
To the bottom of the valley
Down, down, down
But I know it won´t crush me anymore

Every now and then
I think I see a friend
I push the rock up the mountain
Ah, getting close to what I never knew
I just step aside
When the rock begins to slide

Down, down, down
To the bottom of the valley

Down, down, down
But I know it won´t crush me anymore

Love´s not a simple thing
If you´re all alone
And finding someone to care
And when you reach him
He´s not there
It slides

Down, down, down
To the bottom of the valley
Down, down, down
But I know it won´t crush me anymore

Here I go again
Faith has time to lend
I push the rock up the mountain

Hope it won´t be just
Another joke on me
But I just step aside
If the rock begins to slide
