Matchbox Twenty Lyrics
"How Long"

So many times with you and I thought it was right,
but I was wrong, it's true
but I wouldn't feel the way I do
without a sense of something real, for you
It's all about a good thing,
So I don't mind holding on

but how long are you gonna make me wait
how long are you gonna hesitate
cause I love the way we're carrying on
but baby how long

you know the way they always say
don't make it never it's better late
well that's true
but tell me why, my cautious angel
must you put it in my face like you do
it's all about a good thing
so I don't mind holding on

but how long, are you gonna make me wait
how long, are you gonna hesitate
cause I love the way we're carrying on

but baby I don't ever want to make you feel too rushed
make you feel like love wouldn't be enough
that it's just another don't mean much, like a high school crush
make you wanna run
can't you see the way I need you crazy,
and I want you in my arms every night, of my life

so tell me, how long are you gonna make me wait
how long are you gonna hesitate
cause I love the way we're carrying on,
but baby how long? how long? how long?
How long? How Long? How Long?
tell me, how long?
