Phone rings, middle of the night
|
I fumble through the fog to find the light
|
I here your voice at the end of the line sayin,'
|
"Baby, we can make it work this time."
|
It's not that I don't believe that it's so
|
There's just one thing I need to know so baby
|
Won't you tell me
|
|
How long is this time gonna be
|
'Til you decide that you wanna be free
|
How long is this time gonna take
|
'Til I'm lyin' awake with another heartache
|
How long is this time gonna be
|
|
You look like an angel, standin' at my door
|
Just as beautiful as every time before
|
You know my heart like the back of your hand
|
And what I
|
Wouldn't do to have you love me again
|
But one more fall is all I can take
|
So have mercy on me, for Heaven's sake and
|
Tell me
|
|
How long is this time gonna be
|
'Til you decide to fly away from me
|
How long is this time gonna last
|
'Til someone new puts me back in your past
|
How long is this time gonna be
|
|
My foolish mind wants you back in my bed
|
But my
|
Better judgement's still shakin' its head
|
Baby, you make it so hard to be strong
|
I want so bad to believe this night
|
Can make it all right
|
Oh, but what if I'm wrong so please tell me
|
|
How long is this time gonna be
|
'Til you turn around and walk out on me
|
How long 'til this time has to end
|
And you leave my life in pieces again
|
|
How long is this time gonna hurt
|
If you decide forever's never gonna work, girl
|
How long is this time gonna be baby tell me
|
How long is this time gonna be
|
|
I know I shouldn't but I will
|
I can't hide the way I feel
|
Tell me this time that it's real
|
How long
|
