Long TIme Love
I remember
when we met.
Sparkling eyes.
I was set.
We had joy,
and lots of love.
But now we're old,
and love's grown cold.
But baby, baby,
Stay by me.
We have each other.
That's all we need.
For me, the pain
were presents returned.
Seems I couldn't
give love anymore.
For you,
desires and support unmet,
how could I tell you
the pain I felt.
But baby, baby,
Don't you know.
We have each other.
And I love you so.
Now you know,
that something's wrong
I'm lucky
To walk at all.
Now I know,
gifts cost too much,
or didn't fit just right,
or should have shared first sight.
But baby, baby,
Please don't leave.
We have each other.
That's all we need.
I didn't know
life could be this good.
I need some help
to behave as I should.
It's been a long time
You're still the one
You make me smile
You bring me fun
But baby, baby,
Songs are easy to sing.
We have each other.
Love, what's that thing?
Your eyes are sad
We walk no more
Life's a ball and chain
Will we laugh again?
We're still here,
but love's grown cold
We're together
and love is old
But baby, baby,
Sweet songs fill the air.
We have each other.
Long time love, that's rare.
when we met.
Sparkling eyes.
I was set.
We had joy,
and lots of love.
But now we're old,
and love's grown cold.
But baby, baby,
Stay by me.
We have each other.
That's all we need.
For me, the pain
were presents returned.
Seems I couldn't
give love anymore.
For you,
desires and support unmet,
how could I tell you
the pain I felt.
But baby, baby,
Don't you know.
We have each other.
And I love you so.
Now you know,
that something's wrong
I'm lucky
To walk at all.
Now I know,

or didn't fit just right,

But baby, baby,
Sweet songs fill the air.
We have each other.
Long time love, that's rare.
