As Long As I Live - Original - Lena Horne

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
