We're not long for this world
We're not long for this world
And the way I can tell is
I know you too well
We're not long for this world

I know the words that you say
And the words that you mean
And I remember the days
When you meant everything

We're not long for this world
We're not long for this world
And the way I can tell is
I know you too well
We're not long for this world

You hold me close in your arms
And I feel the cold
Oh, but you never meant any harm
By the lies that you told

We're not long for this world
We're not long for this world
And the way I can tell is
I know you too well
We're not long for this world

Yes, the way I can tell is
I know you too well
We're not long for this world
