As Long As I Live

As Long As I Live - Ella Fitzgerald

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

I'll even wear long underwear

When winter breezes blow

I'm gonna take good care of me because

A sneeze or two might mean the flu

And that would never never do

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
