As Long as I Live Songtext
Maybe I can′t live to love you as long as I want to.
Life isn't long enough baby, but I can love you as long as I live.
Maybe I can′t give you diamonds and things like I want to,
But I can promise you, baby, I'm gonna want to as long as I live.
I never cared, but now I'm scared, I won′t live long enough.
That′s why I wear my rubbers when it rains and eat
An apple every day then see
The doctor anyway.
What if I can't live to love you as long as I want to.
Long as I promise you, baby, I′m gonna love you as long I live.
I'll even wear long underwear, when winter breezes blow
I′m gonna take good care of me because,
A sneeze or two might mean the flu,
And that would never never do
What if I can't live to love you as long as I want to.
Long as I promise you, baby, I′m gonna love you as long I live.
Life isn't long enough baby, but I can love you as long as I live.
Maybe I can′t give you diamonds and things like I want to,
But I can promise you, baby, I'm gonna want to as long as I live.
I never cared, but now I'm scared, I won′t live long enough.
That′s why I wear my rubbers when it rains and eat
An apple every day then see
The doctor anyway.
What if I can't live to love you as long as I want to.
Long as I promise you, baby, I′m gonna love you as long I live.
I'll even wear long underwear, when winter breezes blow
I′m gonna take good care of me because,
A sneeze or two might mean the flu,
And that would never never do
What if I can't live to love you as long as I want to.
Long as I promise you, baby, I′m gonna love you as long I live.
