From the album "Play Date"

lyrics

Just As Long
Right now every last bit of my strength, wax and wanes,
Like sunlight trickles through old window panes.
Nobody knows.

Darling I beg you, put all of this behind you.
My mistake, I never should have taken so long.
But what could I do?
What could I do?

Right now you won’t admit you was wrong.
Stubborn I’ll be you’ll see with you all night long.
But we can’t allow this to go on too long,
Just as long, just as long, just as long.

A whirrin’ hurlin’ mind like hers,
A blur of gears, we’ve been
Best friends for years,
With laughter and all of the tears.

Right now the sound of us quiets down,
Night-time depends on a lack of light, you say that’s right.
I close my eyes before each kiss, imagining what I might have missed,
Just as long.

Humble though our dreams may seem to be,
We save and save and save each glimpse of hope,
You know it’s so.

Right now it’s felt down low in my bones.
Somewhere there’s a porch light on for me all night long.
I believe that you’d agree that I’’ve learned to take my lumps.
I believe that you’d agree that I’ve learned to take my lumps.
Just as long, just as long, just as long.
