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. 

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. 

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'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.
