How Long Will I Love You

There’s a version of this song where the question is the whole thing. Not rhetorical—an actual question. How long will I love you? And instead of an answer, there’s just her voice asking it into the dark, like she’s wondering the same thing. You know that feeling, the one where you’re lying there thinking about someone and you’re already tired from loving them, and you just want to know if it’s ever going to stop. Goulding’s got that in her voice. Not dramatic about it. Just tired and honest.
