How Long

It's so hard just waiting

But I guess that's what I have to do

My poor heart keeps on breaking

With every moment I'm away from you

I know you're smart, taking your time

'Cause of what it cost you once before

But it's not then, and I love you a lot

Now and forever

How long do I wait before you make up your mind?

How long? (I wonder, I wonder, wonder)

How long before you take away the hardest of times?

How long? (I wonder, I wonder, wonder)

It's unfair when two who care

Have to face such a perilous sea

Despair lingers everywhere

Like a cloud nobody can reach

I understand you're afraid of it all

Love is one hell of a step

I'll be there if you panic or fall

No matter what the depth

How long do I wait before you make up your mind?

How long? (I wonder, I wonder, wonder)

How long before you take away the hardest of times?

How long? (I wonder, I wonder, wonder)

All I can say I've already said

More than a thousand times

It's up to you to believe every word

Before I lose my mind

How long do I wait before you make up your mind?

How long? (I wonder, I wonder, wonder)

How long before you take away the hardest of times?

How long? (I wonder, I wonder, wonder)

How long do I wait before you make up your mind?

How long? (I wonder, I wonder, wonder)

How long before you take away the hardest of times?
