How Long

If you ask how long I will stay I will ask how long till the end of days Till love gives out on all it's made I'll keep holding on into the late If you ask how long till there's nothing left I will ask how long till my dying breath Till every dot, dash, and word's been said I'll keep giving you all I have If you ask how long I'll keep holding on I will ask how long has this love grown Till time stands still on the grey and old I'll keep away the chill from the marrowbone I will stay until there's nothing left Holding on until my last dying breath
