I used to hurry a lot i used to worry a lot I used to stay out till the break of day Oh that didn't get it It was high time i quit it I just couldn't carry on that way Oh i did some damage i know it's true Didn't know i was so lonely till i found you You can go the distance We'll find out in the long run (in the long run) We can handle some resistance If our love is a strong one (is a strong one) People talkin' about is They got nothin' else to do When it all comes down we will Still come through In the long run Ooh i want to tell you it's a long run You know i don't understand why you don't Treat yourself better Do the crazy things that you do 'Cause all the debutantes in houston baby Couldn't hold a candle to you Did you do it for love Did you do it for money Did you do it for spite Did you think you had to honey Who is gonna make it We'll find out in the long run (in the long run) I know we can take it If our love is a strong one (is a strong one) Well we're scared but we ain't shakin' Kinda bent but we ain't breakin' In the long run Ooh i want to tell you it's a long run In the long run In the long run etc
