How Long Will It Take

(How long will it take) how long will it take to make you need me

Well I ain't got but one life here I'm livin'
So if you're gonna love me baby I've gotta know
(How long will it take) how long will it take to make you want me

Now there ain't a thing on earth that don't need a lovin'
And baby I'm no exception to the rule
But if you keep a puttin' everything above me
Well how in this world will I ever get through to you
