How Long lyrics

[Verse 1]
We think that we're clever
Sneakin’ off together
For a smoke
But I gave up years ago

[Verse 2]
We think they don't notice
When the bar starts closin'
I offer you a ride
We live on different sides

[Pre-Chorus]
Of the city
When you’re near me
I got a one-track mind, all that I'm thinkin'

[Chorus]
Is how long
How long 'til you kiss me? (Sha-la, la-la-la)
I wanna know (Sha-la, la-la-la)
How come
I don't even drink, but I'm tipsy (Sha-la, la-la-la)
And it kills me how (Sha-la, la-la-la)
We're livin' it up, playin’ it down
Whenever our friends come around
We keep our hands to ourselves
Tell me, how long
How long ’til I can call you (Sha-la, la-la-la)
Baby? (Sha-la, la-la-la)
[Verse 3]
If I had it my way
You'd stay ’til Sunday
We'd leave the world alone
Take it slow and if the phone rings

[Pre-Chorus]
We'd just let it
They'll get the message
For now, darlin’, don't keep me waitin'

[Chorus]
How long
How long 'til you kiss me? (Sha-la, la-la-la)
I wanna know (Sha-la, la-la-la)
How come
I don't even drink, but I'm tipsy (Sha-la, la-la-la)
And it kills me how (Sha-la, la-la-la)
We're livin' it up, playin' it down
Whenever our friends come around
We keep our hands to ourselves (Ooh)
Tell me, how long
How long 'til I can call you baby? (Sha-la, la-la-la)
How long?

[Guitar Solo]
Mm
Oh, no
[Chorus]
Tell me, how long
How long 'til you kiss me? (Sha-la, la-la-la)
I wanna know (Sha-la, la-la-la)
How come
I don't even drink, but I'm tipsy (Sha-la, la-la-la)
How long? (Sha-la, la-la-la)

[Outro]
Oh
Oh, how long?
Mm, baby, tell me how long
Oh, oh
How long?
