[Verse 1]
I don't wanna watch the sunrise
On another day
Feel my heart getting colder inside
Watching time slip away
How can I be sure?
When you're not here
I just can't stop wanting you
But I need some loving to
[Chorus]
How long 'til you're back in my arms?
How long 'til my waiting is over?
How strong do you think I can be?
Before I say goodbye, how long?
Until I let it die, how long?
How long can this carry on?
[Verse 2]
I don't wanna hear you call me
On the phone tonight
It only makes me wanna reach out
Feels like holding you tight
Do you wanna break the chains?
Loving's bad
I just can't keep holding on
Everybody needs someone
[Chorus]
How long 'til you're back in my arms?
How long 'til my waiting is over?
How strong do you think I can be?
Before I say goodbye, how long?
Until I let it die, how long?
How long can this carry on?
[Bridge]
I'm not gonna hold on
I'm not giving in
If not to say you
When I call your name
In this sacred love
Why can't you be mine?
[Chorus]
How long 'til you're back in my arms?
How long 'til my waiting is over?
How strong do you think I can be?
Before I say goodbye, how long?
Until I let it die, how long?
How long can this carry on?
