Lipa unveiled the album’s cover, title and tracklist on 13 March 2024. According to Lipa, the title Radical Optimism was inspired by “the idea of going through chaos gracefully and feeling like you can weather any storm”. The artwork of the album was unveiled along with its announcement.
[Intro]
How long, how long
[Verse 1]
Are you good at holding on?
I know the mind is quick to throw away the moment
Where this takes us, maybe I don't wanna know yet
'Cause for now, you're all I want
They say you got it, then it's gone
I don't believe that every flame has to get colder
I hope the feelings that you give me carry over
'Till tomorrow and beyond
[Chorus]
How long, how long
Can it just keep getting better?
Can we keep falling forever?
How long, how long
Can we stay like this together?
Can we keep falling forever?
[Verse 2]
You could wake up all alone
So tonight, I'll give you something to remember
And eternity's impossible to measure
But it feels right where we are
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm (I’m) falling deep (Falling deep)
Deep in your arms, baby
Baby, I'm yours to keep
Keep me close
'Till tomorrow and beyond
[Chorus]
How long, how long
Can it just keep getting better?
Can we keep falling forever?
How long, how long
Can we stay like this together?
Can we keep falling forever?
[Bridge]
I, I wanna know
Can you ride through any storm? (Any storm)
Can you ride from night 'till dawn? ('Till dawn)
'Till tomorrow and beyond
[Chorus]
How long, how long
Can it just keep getting better?
Can we keep falling forever?
How long, how long
Can we stay like this together?
Can we keep falling forever?
[Outro]
How long?
Can it just keep getting better?
Can we keep falling forever?
Oh, ooh-ooh
How long?
How, how long?
