How Long
by Greg Long, Margaret Becker

Album: Cross My Heart

Greg:
-Some people talk about forever,
Like it's a time that never comes.
-But just like days we thought would last,
Time goes by so fast - tomorrow's come and gone.

Margaret:
-Our life's a treasure that we're given,
And every hour's ours to spend.
-But, every moment that we waste,
Can never be replaced and never comes again.

Greg:
-We get so caught up in the future,
That we don't take the time to live today.

Chorus: (Both)
-And how long does it take to love each other,
To believe with every day, there's a difference we can make.
-And how long will it take to start all over,
If we finally realize we've been wasting so much time.

Greg:
-What matters most is hard to measure,
With not beginning and no end.

Margaret:
-And we often come so close, but never even know,
That we hold it in our hand.

Greg:
-We get so caught up in the future,
That we don't take the time to live today.

Chorus: (Both)
-And how long does it take to love each other,
To believe with every day, there's a difference we can make.
-And how long will it take to start all over,
If we finally realize, we've been wasting so much time.

-And how long does it take to love each other,
Greg: to believe with ever day
Margaret: there's a difference we can make.

-And how long will it take to start all over,
Greg: if we finally realize
Margaret: we've been wasting so much time.
