How Long

Do you recall that winter evening
The night that I said I?m leaving
Hoping
You would change my mind

I lay my head up on your kness and
Whispered please but inside I was
Leaving
I?m the leaving kind

I could put you off forever
This longing has no end

How long
Til you and I can be together
How long
Until we see this through
How long
Until we know that this is forever
How long
Til I say I love you

And when the burning leaves are falling
I can always hear you calling
Fearing
That we are losing ground

But in you secret hearts we?re knowing
Our love is winter and it?s snowing
Falling
Comfort coming down

I could put you off forever
This longing has no end
Advertising lasts a lifetime
If not now then when?
