I've been your lover for too many years
I'm through with wastin' my time
You been out runnin' without any fear

You ain't committin' no crime
I hear you're sleepin' with one of my friends

If it takes forever, I don't mind, if it takes forever, I've got time
All that I wanna know, can you lay it on the line
'Cause if it takes forever, you know I'm gonna find out
