Testo: Steve Azar. How Long Is This Time Gonna Be.

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
Till you decide that you wanna be free
How long is this time gonna take
Till I'm lyin' awake with another heartache
How long is this time gonna be, yeah

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
Till you decide to fly away from me
How long is this time gonna last
Till 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 judgment'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
Till you turn around and walk out on me
How long till this time has to end
And you leave my life in pieces again

How long is this time gonna hurt
If you decide forevers never gonna work, girl
How long is this time gonna be
Baby tell me how long is this time gonna be, yeah

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
