Count Basie › Lyrics › As Long as I Live

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

And 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

Well, I never cared, now I'm scared
I won't live long enough
That's why I wear my rubbers when it rains
And eat an apple everyday, see the doctor anyway

And what if I can't live to love you
As long as I want to
Long as I promise you, baby
I'm gonna want to as long as I live

Maybe I can't live to love you
As long as I want to
Life just isn't long enough, baby
But I'm gonna love you as long as I live

And 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

Well, I never cared, 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, see the doctor anyway

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

I'm gonna love you, love you
Love you long as I live

Just long as I live
Love you as long as I live
Yeah, I'm gonna love you, love you, love you long as I live
I'm gonna love you, love you, I'm gonna love you
Love you
