How Long? - Paul McDonald

Yeah, I’ve been taking pills to wake me up

And give me that good feeling

To help me find some reason in your leaving

To help me understand where it went wrong

And I’ve been giving in to all the people

Constantly shit talking behind my back

I say that I’m not falling but in my heart I’m sinking like a stone

Can you tell me how long?

How long 'til I learn from my mistakes?

How long will I pretend that things are going my way?

How long?

Can you tell me how long?

How long can I float without a change?

How long 'til I learn to love the right way?

Yeah, how long?

Can you tell me how long?

How long, how long 'til I learn to love again?

How long, how long does it take to comprehend?

How long, how long does it take to man?

Well, I try and think it over but I overthink it all

Maybe that’s my problem, maybe that’s where we went wrong

And you ain’t used to being honest while I can only be sincere

And I was never good at acting

You should know by now I’ve never been

Can you tell me how long?

How long 'til I learn from my mistakes?

How long will I pretend that things are going my way?

How long?

Can you tell me how long?

How long can I float without a change?

How long 'til I learn to love the right way?

Yeah, how long?

Can you tell me how long?

How long, how long 'til I learn to love again?

How long, how long does it take to comprehend?

How long, how long does it take to make a man?

Does it take to make a man?

Tell me how long does it take to make a man?

Tell me it’s gonna change

Tell me one day this will end

Am I ever gonna wake up and never look that way again?

Can you tell me how long?

How long 'til I learn from my mistakes?

How long will I pretend that things are going my way?

How long?

Can you tell me how long?

How long can I float without a change?

How long 'til I learn to love the right way?

Yeah, how long?

Can you tell me how long?

How long, how long 'til I learn to love again?

How long, how long does it take to comprehend?

How long, how long does it take to make a man?

Can you tell me how long?

Tell me how long does it take to make a man?
