How Long?
It's five o'clock in the afternoon
Somebody's playing a sixties tune on the radio
Lazy wind tumbles down the street
It shakes the dust up with the summer heat
Where the people go
In fancy town where nothing's real
They don't consider what you feel
In fancy town it's black and white
They close their minds, they say
"Wrong is right"
How long will your love
Hold on to stay strong enough?
How long will your love
Hold on to stay strong enough?
How long?
In fancy town the attitude
Could strip you bare like frozen food
A ship of fools in a crazy choir
Is gonna take you home and light your fire
In fancy town where nothing's real
They don't consider what you feel
In fancy town it's black and white
They close their minds, they say
"Wrong is right"
How long will your love
Hold on to stay strong enough?
How long will your love
Hold on to stay strong enough?
How long will your love
Hold on to stay strong enough?
How long will your love
Hold on to stay strong enough?
How long?
A deck of cards in perfect black
Like cold cement on the pavement cracks
Where lovers steal and beg for time
And doctors sign on the dotted line
How long will your love
Hold on to stay strong enough?
How long will your love
Hold on to stay strong enough?
How long will your love
Hold on to stay strong enough?
How long will your love
Hold on to stay strong enough?
How long will your love
Hold on to stay strong enough?
How long will your love
Hold on to stay strong enough?
How long will your love
Hold on to stay strong enough?
How long?
