Lyrics
As Long as I Live 1934 - Harold Arlen / Ted Koehler Maybe I can't live to love you as long as I want to Life isn't long enough, baby But I can love you as long as I live Maybe I can't give you diamonds and things like I want to But I can promise you, baby I'm gonna want to as long as I live I never cared, but now I'm scared I won't live long enough That's why I wear my rubbers when it rains And eat an apple every day Then see the doctor anyway What if I can't live to love you as long as I want to? Long as I promise you, baby I'm gonna love you as long I live I'll even wear long underwear when winter breezes blow I'm gonna take good care of me Because a sneeze or two might mean the flu And that would never never do What if I can't live to love you as long as I want to? Long as I promise you, baby I'm gonna love you as long I live, long as I live
