How Long Is This Time Gonna Be - Steve Azar

The phone rings

Middle on the night

I fumble through the file

To find the light

I hear your voice at the end of the line

Saying, baby we can make it work this time

Its' not that I dont believe thats 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 laying awake with another heart ache

How long is this time gonna be

You look like an angle standing at my door

Just as beautiful as everytime 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 heavens 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 judgement’s still shakin his head

Baby you make it so hard to be strong

I want so bad to believe this night can make it allright

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 forever’s never going to work

How long is this time gonna be

Baby tell me

How long is this time gonna be

I know I shouldn’t but I will

I can’t hid the way I feel

Tell me this time that it’s real

How long?
