[Verse 1]
How long will I love you, I don't really know
I'd like to think forever is how far we could go
So let me paint a picture of how it's gonna be
The day you don't mean everything to me

[Chorus]
When a nickel's worth a dollar and gold ain't worth a dime
When they build a ship on waters that will take you back in time
When the stars have all been counted and I stop lovin' you
Honey they'll be driving Buicks to the moon

[Verse 2]
Now you don't have to worry about what comes to pass
This old world may wear out but my love's gonna last
If they ever build that highway to the moon
I'll just find something else to promise you

[Chorus]
When a nickel's worth a dollar and gold ain't worth a dime
When they build a ship on waters that will take you back in time
When the stars have all been counted and I stop lovin' you
Honey they'll be driving Buicks to the moon

[Outro]
Oh when the stars have all be counted
And I stop lovin' you
Honey they'll be drivin' Buicks to the moon
