It Won't Take Long — The Rolling Stones

(M. Jagger/K. Richards)

Baby it won't take long to forget you Time it passes fast It'll all be over in a minute You'll be in the past

You can lose the love of a lifetime In a single roll You can gain a fortune in an instant Or you can lose your soul

And it won't take long to forget ya You know I'm never wrong It'll all be over in a minute And it won't take long

And it won't take long to forgive ya But it's hard to forget 'Cause it seems like it's yesterday The day that we first met

When you give me a smouldering look and Put out your cigarette When I saw you come samtering over You wore a pale blue dress

Life is short, one look and it's over Comes as quite a shock All I got is some memories Stuck in an old shoebox

And it won't take long to forget ya You know I'm never wrong It'll all be over by Christmas No, it won't take long

It won't take long
