How Come, How Long
There was a girl I used to know
- There 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 kind of man
- And he abused her love treated her so bad
- There was not enough education in her world
- That could save the 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
- Herself On but no one came to her aid
- Nothing was wrong as far as we could tell
- That's what we'd like to tell ourselves
- 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 we must look for the signs
- And maybe next time
- We may 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 heart as well as your eyes
- I on occasion met that guy
- He stirred up feeling deep inside
- Something about him wasn't right
- The way he proves himself a man
- By beatin' his woman with his hands
- Oh I wish that she was still alive
- How can someone like that call himself a man
- He's not a man
- 'Cause in reality he's far more less than that
- And we cannot ignore at all
- Whenever we see the signs
- 'Cause any kind of abuse
- God knows is a crime
- 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
