No, they're not in love anymore They are stuck and afraid Don't worry babe Don't get too down on yourself They were in love when you were made His old boots finally wore out And the fire in his belly faded Her supple breast sadly sagged As her tender heart grew jaded [Chorus] A life of love is a long time When you know that it's only one time You were the reason they stuck around But you're old enough now Don't worry babe Not till you've been there too, will your world be less cruel The cold truth finally seeps through Until your memory is saturated Your fragile smile loses teeth and Your sparkling eyes grew faded [Chorus] A life of love is a long time When you know that it's only one time The good is not so hard to forget Though it seems far away Don't worry babe, don't get too down on yourself They were in love when you were made [Chorus] A life of love is a long time When you know that it's only one time [Chorus] A life of love is a long time When you know it's only one time
