How Long Will It Take

How long will it take

How long will it take to make you need me

I keep a waitin' and a wonderin' how long will it take

Well you keep a tellin' me your love I'm winnin'

Then you turn right around and you treat me hard and cold

Well I ain't got but one life here I'm livin'

So if you're gonna love me baby I've gotta know

How long will it take

How long will it take to make you want me

How much longer has this old heart gotta break

How long will it take

How long will it take to make you need me

I keep a waitin' and a wonderin' how long will it take

Now there ain't a thing on earth that don't need a lovin'

And baby I'm no exception to the rule

But if you keep a puttin' everything above me

Well how in this world will I ever get through to you

How long will it take
