How Long Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Try to play it cool, I like you
Have me in your hand just like that
Wish I never told ya, it's killin' me to wonder
[Pre-Chorus]
You give, you give me empty promises of love
You're an honest man when you're drunk
Wish I never asked ya, but it's killin' me to wonder
How long? How long?
[Chorus]
How, how long have you loved another
While I'm dreamin' of us together?
She got the best of you
Part of me always knew
How, how long have you tried to end it
While I'm blamin' myself to fix it?
How long? (How long?)
How long?
[Verse 2]
Listen to my fears, not my friends
They don't tell the truth, they like you
Wish I never told ya, it's killin' me to wonder (Ah, yeah)
[Pre-Chorus]
You give, you give me empty promises of love
You're an honest man when you're drunk
Wish I never asked ya (Asked ya), but it's killin' me to wonder (Ah, yeah)
How long? How long?
[Chorus]
How, how long have you loved another
While I'm dreamin' of us together?
She got the best of you
Part of me always knew
How, how long have you tried to end it
While I'm blamin' myself to fix it?
How long? (How long?)
I need to know
How long have you loved another
While I'm dreamin' of us together?
How long? (How long?)
How long? How long?
[Bridge]
I know love isn't fair
I know the heart wants what it wants
There's no way to prepare
For burning, brutal rejection
I know it takes some time
To feel the pain of losin' a lie
[Chorus]
How, how long have you loved another
While I'm dreamin' of us together?
She got the best of you (She did)
Part of me always knew (I knew)
How, how long have you tried to end it
While I'm blamin' myself to fix it?
How long? (Hey, yeah, how long?)
I need to know
How long have you loved another
While I'm dreamin' of us together?
How long? (How long?, yeah)
How long? How long?

What did Tove Lo say about "How Long"?
“How Long” is about love, betrayal and denial. It was one of the few songs that came together for me during quarantine, and I think it’s so beautiful in all its darkness. I’m so honored that it gets to be a part of Euphoria, a show I love so much because of its rawness and provocative storytelling.

How did the song end up being on Euphoria soundtrack?
So that was definitely [written] with Euphoria in mind, without knowing if they wanted it or not. I actually sent a letter to the director [Sam Levinson]. I was like, “I love this show. I would love to have a song in this show. And here’s some songs I think would—” I think I sent two or three songs...
