Keith Jarrett - How Long Has This Been Going On

As a tot, when I trotted in little velvet panties
I was kissed by my sisters, my cousins, and my aunties
Sad to tell, it was hell, an inferno worse than Dante's

So my dear I swore
Never, never more
On my list, I insisted that kissing must be crossed out
Now, I find I was blind, and oh my
How I lost out

I could cry salty tears
Where have I been all these years

Little wow, tell me now
How long has this been going on

There were chills up my spine
And some thrills I can't define
Listen, sweet, I repeat
How long has this been going on

Oh, I feel that I could melt
Into Heaven I'm hurled
I know how Columbus felt
Finding another world

Kiss me once, then once more
What a dunce I was before
What a break
For Heaven's sake
How long has this been going on

Dear, when in your arms I creep
That divine rendezvous
Don't wake me, if I'm asleep
Let me dream that it's true

Kiss me twice, then once more
That makes thrice, let's make it four
What a break
For Heaven's sake
How long has this been going on
How long has this, been going on
