Lyrics
Do all the things that you used to do
To make me feel happy mean nothin' to you
is it too much bother, is it too much fuss
is it any wonder there's not much between us?
How long
How long can we go on?
How long?
How long now that love is gone?
How long can we keep this going on?
What made me love you
No longer exists
The two of us can't go on like this
My feelings of love
They're all gone
I see no use in us going on
How long
How long can we go on?
How long?
How long now that love is gone?
How long can we keep this going on?
The way we're going can't be right
I wanna talk, you wanna fight
we're hanging on, don't know what for
I just don't love you anymore.
How long
How long can we go on?
How long?
How long now that love is gone?
How long can we keep this going on?
