How Long Lyrics by Julie Dexter

Dexterity

2002

[Intro]
How? How?
How? How?
How? How?
[Chorus]
Realize you're here for a reason
Put on this Earth just like the seasons
Many have gone before us, many will pass
How long does a lifetime last?
[Verse 1]
I, I, thinking, I've been thinking, 'bout this crazy world
It's gotta be a reason
Oh yes there has
To why we're born and then we're gone
[Chorus]
Realize you're here for a reason
Put on this Earth just like the seasons
Many have gone before us, many will pass
How long does a lifetime last?
[Verse 2]
Do you, do you know, do you know life's just a moment?
Something so precious shame you can't hold it
If you had a second chance, would you change a thing?
Or would you live, live, live the same, same life again?
It seems like I gotta get my life
Gotta get my life together
See I don't know when my time's gonna come
So much work to be done
Places I wanna see
Faces I wanna meet
Do you, do you feel the same?
Do you, do you feel the same?
[Chorus]
Realize you're here for a reason
Put on this Earth just like the seasons
Many have gone before us, many will pass
How long does a lifetime last?
[Interlude]
Last (last)
Last (last)
Last (last)
How long (last, last)
How long (last)
How long (last)
Will it last (last)
How long will it last (last)
Do you, do you, do you, do you, do you (last)
Do you, do you, do you, do you, do you (last)
Do you know, do you know (last)
How long will I be from Earth? (last)
How long (last)
How long, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how (last)
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Outro]
'Cause you never know when you're gonna go
So you better show what you gotta show, yes you better
That's why I'm gonna go where I wanna go 'cause I
'Cause I never know when I'm gonna go 'cause I never
'Cause you never know when you're gonna go
So you better show what you gotta show, yes you better
That's why I'm gonna go where I wanna go 'cause I
'Cause I never know when I'm gonna go 'cause I never
'Cause you never know when you're gonna go
So you better show what you gotta show, yes you better
That's why I'm gonna go where I wanna go 'cause I
'Cause I never know when I'm gonna go 'cause I never
'Cause you never know when you're gonna go
So you better show what you gotta show, yes you better
That's why I'm gonna go where I wanna go 'cause I
'Cause I never know when I'm gonna go 'cause I never
'Cause you never know when you're gonna go
So you better show what you gotta show, yes you better
That's why I'm gonna go where I wanna go 'cause I
'Cause I never know when I'm gonna go 'cause I never
'Cause you never know when you're gonna go
So you better show what you gotta show, yes you better
That's why I'm gonna go where I wanna go 'cause I
'Cause I never know when I'm gonna go 'cause I never
'Cause you never know when you're gonna go
So you better show what you gotta show, yes you better
That's why I'm gonna go where I wanna go 'cause I
'Cause I never know when I'm gonna go 'cause I never
'Cause you never know when you're gonna go
So you better show what you gotta show, yes you better
That's why I'm gonna go where I wanna go 'cause I
'Cause I never know when I'm gonna go 'cause I never
