Lyrics As Long As I Love You - Count Basie, Joe Williams

As Long As I Love You

Baby 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
Baby I can’t buy diamonds and things
Like I want to
But I can promise you baby
I’m going to want you as long as I live
Well I never cared but now I’m scared
That I won’t live long enough
That’s why I wear my rubbers when it rains
And eat an apple everyday and see the doctor anyway
What if 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
