Try to play it cool, I like you Have me in your hand just like that Wish I never told ya, it's killin' me to wonder You give, you give me empty promises of love You're an honest man when you're drunk Wish I never asked ya, but it's killin' me to wonder How long? How long? How long have you loved another While I'm dreamin' of us together? She got the best of you Part of me always knew How long have you tried to end it While I'm blamin' myself to fix it? How long? Listen to my fears, not my friends They don't tell the truth, they like you Wish I never told ya but it's killin' me to wonder, yeah You give, you give me empty promises of love You're an honest man when you're drunk Wish I never asked ya but it's killin' me to wonder How long? How long? How long have you loved another While I'm dreamin' of us together? She got the best of you Part of me always knew How long have you tried to end it While I'm blamin' myself to fix it? How long? 'Cause I need to know How long have you loved another While I'm dreamin' of us together? How long? How long? How long? I know love isn't fair I know the heart wants what it wants There's no way to prepare For burning, brutal rejection I know it takes some time To feel the pain of losin' a lie
