[Verse 1]
Maybe I can't live to love you as long as I want to
Life isn't long enough, baby
But I can love you as long as I live
Maybe I can't give you diamonds and things like I want to
But I can promise you, baby
I'm gonna want to as long as I live
[Bridge]
I never cared, but now I'm scared
I won't live long enough
That's why I wear my rubbers when it rains
And eat an apple every day
Then see the doctor anyway
[Verse 2]
What if I can't live to love you as long as I want to?
Long as I promise you, baby
I'm gonna love you as long I live
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
I'll even wear long underwear when winter breezes blow
I'm gonna take good care of me
Because a sneeze or two might mean the flu
And that would never never do
What if I can't live to love you as long as I want to?
Long as I promise you, baby
I'm gonna love you as long I live, long as I live
[Outro]
I'm gonna love you, baby, just as long as I live
