How long is it s'posed to take
Which song got the answer straight
I thought I sang 'em all
What face am I gonna make
Which leg to I have to break
To know I took the fall

It's like I'm standing on the edge of madness
Save me from crossing that line
Sure that I'll never come back

[Chorus: ]
With the dawn, life goes on
How long can I keep waiting on your love
Hold my breath, give me strength
How long can I keep holding on
How long can I keep waiting on your love

True love is a funny thing
Too much for a diamond ring
To guarantee applause
Too late when you have to guess
Which joke's taken as tenderness
Penny for your thoughts

Just like I'm hanging off the edge of madness
Stop me from falling so far
How can you let me let go

[Chorus: ]

I keep every moment frozen in time
And if they're all I get, I'll be cold the rest of my life

[Chorus: ]
