I hear this great new place has opened up
 And when we get there
 I don't know It's taken ages
 Don't you know

 How long how long
 Will this go on
 How long how long
 Time drags on
 How long I find I
 can't go on much longer now

 But the place in question's hard to find
 Not a cab ride to the door
 As you wonder in your doubtful mind
 Is it really worth all that and more

 We seem to be a little lost or something
 I'm not really sure about the choice we're making
 The toil it's taking on

 How long how long
 Will this go on
 How long how long
 The time drags on
 How long
 I find I can't go on much longer now

 But the place in question's hard to find
 Like an illness with no cure
 And our heads are getting wearier
 And our hearts are less than pure
 Less than pure

 How long I find
 I can't go on much longer now

 And the place in question's hard to find
 Not a cab ride to the door
 And our heads are getting wearier
 And our hearts are less than pure
