Babyface - How Come, How Long(Feat. Stevie Wonder)

here was a girl I used to know
She was oh so beautiful
But she's not here anymore
She had a college degree
Smart as anyone could be
She had so much to live for
But she fell in love
with the wrong kinda man
He abused her love
and treated her so bad
There was not enough
education in her world
that could save life
of this little girl
How come how long
It's not right
it's so wrong
Do we let it just go on
Turn our backs and carry on
Wake up for it's too late
Right now we can't wait
She won't have a second try
Open up your hearts
As well as your eyes

She tried to give a cry for help
she even blamed things on herself
But no one came to her aid
Nothing was wrong as far as
we could tell
That's what we'd like to
tell our self
But no
it wasn't that way
So she fell in love
With the wrong kinda man
And she paid with her life
for loving that man
So we cannot ignore
look for the signs
And maybe next time
we must save somebody's life
How come how long
It's not right
it's so wrong
Do we let it just go on
Turn our backs and carry on
Wake up for it's too late
Right now we can't wait
She won't have a second try
Open up your hearts
As well as your eyes

I on occasion met that guy
He stirred up bad feelings
deep inside
Something about him wasn't right
The way he proves himself a man
By beat in his woman
with his hands
Oh I wish she'd seen the light
How can someone like that
Call himself a man
In reality he's
far more less than that
And we cannot ignore
Whenever we see the signs
Cause any kinda of abuse
God knows isn't right
How come how long
It's not right it's so wrong
Do we let it just go on
Turn our backs and carry on
Wake up for it's too late
Right now we can't wait
She won't have a second try
Open up your hearts
As well as your eyes
How come how long
It's not right it's so wrong
Do we let it just go on
Turn our backs and carry on
Wake up for it's too late
Right now we can't wait
She won't have a second try
Open up your hearts
As well as

your eyes
