Johnny C. Lately - Long Slow Decline Lyrics

Run your fingers thru my hair and tell me what you think
Sit down right beside me, Love, and have another drink
Tell me all your troubles and I will tell you mine
On this long slow decline

Friends will come and friends will go that's what they say
But we've been friends now for more than just one day
Our love won't fade away, so let's not waste our time
On this long slow decline

I remember, when we first met, you were a hit
I said "Now there's a friend... with benefits"
I've got 20-20 but I'm glad Love is blind
On this long slow decline

Ah , falling in love... yeah, that's the easy part
But staying there... that's what's hard
Teach me what I need to know and we'll be fine
On this long slow decline

How much time we've got left is hard to tell
But one thing's for certain, Babe, we'll raise some Hell
Let's make the most of living, you know it ain't a crime
On this long slow decline
It's a long slow decline
