Often as I May by The Great Society Lyrics
I love him
As often as I may
And I will give him before it goes away
The grass and wine brought love that makes him laugh and gentle
Look! at him he may be smiling
The eyes are wide and black and acid clear
Not exactly knowing why he stays when he speaks of leaving
He won't say "Damn, I want to love tomorrow"
He knows the one I love each time is never quite the same
But it's so near and with that in mind I'll ask to borrow him
Look! At the love that has him moving on and on
Stop anything that makes the loving bore
And when he uses every soft word that I say
He'll go away
I love him
As often as I may
And I will give him before it goes away
The grass and wine brought love that makes him laugh and gentle
Look! at him he may be smiling
The eyes are wide and black and acid clear
Not exactly knowing why he stays when he speaks of leaving
He won't say "Damn, I want to love tomorrow"
He knows the one I love each time is never quite the same
But it's so near and with that in mind I'll ask to borrow him
Look! At the love that has him moving on and on
Stop anything that makes the loving bore
And when he uses every soft word that I say
He'll go away
As often as I may
And I will give him before it goes away
The grass and wine brought love that makes him laugh and gentle
Look! at him he may be smiling
The eyes are wide and black and acid clear
Not exactly knowing why he stays when he speaks of leaving
He won't say "Damn, I want to love tomorrow"
He knows the one I love each time is never quite the same
But it's so near and with that in mind I'll ask to borrow him
Look! At the love that has him moving on and on
Stop anything that makes the loving bore
And when he uses every soft word that I say
He'll go away
I love him
As often as I may
And I will give him before it goes away
The grass and wine brought love that makes him laugh and gentle
Look! at him he may be smiling
The eyes are wide and black and acid clear
Not exactly knowing why he stays when he speaks of leaving
He won't say "Damn, I want to love tomorrow"
He knows the one I love each time is never quite the same
But it's so near and with that in mind I'll ask to borrow him
Look! At the love that has him moving on and on
Stop anything that makes the loving bore
And when he uses every soft word that I say
He'll go away
