As Long As I Live (W/ Emmylou Harris) Lyrics
(Roy Acuff)
As long as I live, if it be one hour
Or if it be one hundred years
I'll keep remembering, forever and ever
I'll love you, Dear, as long as I live
It was easy said (sing it pretty, Emily), the night we parted
That we'd forget, we ever met
I haven't forgotten, I wonder if you have
Or if your heart is too full of regret
As long as I live, if it be one hour
Or if it be one hundred years
I'll keep remembering, forever and ever
I'll love you, Dear, as long as I live
-Solo- (That's Jock Caplin on the piano)
Oh I never thought that night we parted
That life alone would be, oh, so sad
I know it sounds funny, but I'll never forget you
You're the only joy, I ever had
As long as I live (everybody sings), if it be one hour
Or if it be one hundred years
I'll keep remembering (always), forever and ever
I'll love you, Dear, as long as I live
I'll love you, Dear, as long as I live
(That's beautiful)
