How Long Will It Take

(album: Fist City - 1968)

(How long will it take) how long will it take to make you need me
I keep a waiting and a wondering how long will it take
Well you keep a telling me your love I'm winning
Then you turn right around and you treat me hard and cold
Well I ain't got but one life here I'm living
So if you're gonna love me baby I've gotta know
(How long will it take) how long will it take to make you want me
How much longer has this old heart gotta break
(How long will it take) how long will it take to make you need me
I keep a waiting and a wondering how long will it take
[ steel ]
Now there ain't a thing on earth that don't need a loving
And baby I'm no exception to the rule
But if you keep a putting everything above me
Well how in this world will I ever get through to you
(How long will it take...
