Don't you see?
It wasn't meant to be
Keep on till you die

When lying down
We kick the crying clown
And there's never a thought

Of how he lifts a frown

The longer you love

The longer you live
The stronger you feel
The more you can give


It's dying like sand, sand in a sieve
Where is the time to remain?


Well don't forget
The day you ever met

Trying to believe
It wasn't wasted time
You sipping gin and wry

You had to walk away
It haunts you every day


The longer you love
The longer you live
The stronger you feel

The more you can give

Floating away, day in the rain

The lady you love can't sustain

The longer you love

The longer you live
The stronger you feel
The more you can give


We're dying like sand, sand in a sieve
Where is the time to remain?


The longer you love
The longer you live

The stronger you feel
The more you can give


Floating away, day in the rain
The lady you love can't sustain


The longer you love
The longer you live
The stronger you feel

The more you can give

You're floating away, day in the rain

The lady you love will sustain
