How Long

You and I are living heavy-hearted

Are we just another long goodbye?

In this land of the left and leaving

We know that we gotta try

How long can we go on?

Here in the middle, we won't give a little

And how long can we go on like this

Oh won't you tell me?

How long can we go on?

Heart break is what it takes sometimes, you see

But what about you and me?

How long?

Forgiveness is a heavy promise

Its a language that's so hard to speak

I'm hearing whispers by the darkest voices

But I know what you mean to me (so much to me)

How long can we go on?

Here in the middle, we won't give a little

And how long can we go on like this

Oh won't you tell me?

How long can we go on?

Heart break is what it takes sometimes, you see

But what about you and me?

How long?

And all we are, we are

And what will be, will be

You and I we gotta find

A burned up bridge to each others side

Its the only way to see

How long can we go on?

How long can we go on?

Barely living, when nobody's giving in

How long can we go on like this

Oh won't you tell me?

How long can we go on?

Heart break is what it takes sometimes, you see

But what about you and me?

How long?
