As Long as I Live by Rosemary Clooney Lyrics

(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
