How Long
Endless Heartache: The Journey of Love and Loss
Lyrics
How long? How long?
Expressing a repeated question about the duration of time
How long? How long?
Reiterating the question about the length of time
Will you give yourself to another guy
Asking if the person will commit themselves romantically to someone else
And never give our love another try?
Questioning if the individual will not attempt to rekindle their love with the speaker
Why?
Expressing confusion or disbelief, seeking a reason
Keep runnin' that dream all over town
Accusing the person of pursuing their dreams elsewhere while disregarding the speaker
While you keep on kicking me to the ground
Feeling continuously mistreated or ignored
Ground
Emphasizing the pain or feeling of being brought down
How long? How long?
Repeatedly asking about the duration of time
How long? How long?
Continuing to question the duration, seeking an answer
Will you keep on pushing me down the road
Asking if the person will persist in hindering the speaker's progress
Thinking I'ma do what just what I'm told?
Refusing to comply with demands or expectations
No
Denial or rejection of following orders
Pat me by just one more time
Pleading for one last gesture of affection
You're never gonna get this heart of mine
Asserting that the person won't succeed in winning the speaker's love
Mine
Emphasizing ownership of the heart
We've been on this dead-end road
Describing the relationship as stagnant or going nowhere
Believe we're ready to explode
Suggesting a readiness for a significant emotional outburst
And even in our final hours
Reflecting on the relationship's potential end
See the beauty in the dying flowers
Finding beauty even in the decay or decline of the relationship
How long? How long?
Repeating the question about the duration of time
How long? How long?
Continuing to inquire about the length of time
How long? How long?
Reiteration of the prolonged duration
How long? How long?
Continuing to ask about the passage of time
How long? How long?
Repeating the question, seeking clarification or resolution
How long? How long?
Repeating the query regarding the duration
