《How Come， How Long》歌词

[00:00:01] 歌手：babyface

[00:00:24] There was a girl I used to know

[00:00:27] She was oh so beautiful

[00:00:30] But she's not here anymore

[00:00:36] She had a college degree

[00:00:39] Smart as anyone could be

[00:00:42] She had so much to live for

[00:00:47] But she fell in love

[00:00:49] With the wrong kinda of man

[00:00:53] He abused her love and treated her so bad

[00:00:59] There was not enough education in her world

[00:01:05] That could save the life of this little girl

[00:01:10] How come how long

[00:01:13] It's not right it's so wrong

[00:01:16] Do we let it just go on

[00:01:19] Turn our backs and carry on

[00:01:22] Wake up for it's too late

[00:01:25] Right now we can't wait

[00:01:28] She won't have a second try

[00:01:30] Open up your hearts

[00:01:33] As well as your eyes

[00:01:47] She tried to give a cry for help

[00:01:50] She even blamed things on herself

[00:01:52] But no one came to her aid

[00:01:59] Nothing was wrong as far as we could tell

[00:02:02] That's why we'd like to tell ourselves

[00:02:04] But not It wasn't that way

[00:02:10] So she fell in love

[00:02:12] With the wrong kinda of man

[00:02:15] And she paid with her life

[00:02:18] For loving that man

[00:02:22] So we can not ignore

[00:02:24] We must look for the signs

[00:02:28] And maybe next time we might save somebody's life

[00:02:32] How come how long

[00:02:36] It's not right it's so wrong

[00:02:39] Do we let it just go on

[00:02:42] Turn our backs and carry on

[00:02:45] Wake up for it's too late

[00:02:48] Right now we can't wait

[00:02:51] She won't have a second try

[00:02:54] Open up your hearts

[00:02:56] As well as your eyes

[00:03:21] I on occasion met that guy

[00:03:25] Instantly feeling deep inside

[00:03:28] Something about him wasn't right

[00:03:34] The way he calls himself a man

[00:03:37] By beating his woman with his hands

[00:03:40] Oh I wish that she had seen the light

[00:03:45] How can someone like this call himself a man （He's not a man）

[00:03:51] Cuz in reality he's far more less than yeah

[00:03:56] And we cannot ignore whenever we see the signs

[00:04:03] Cause anykind of abuse god knows is a sign

[00:04:09] How come how long

[00:04:11] It's not right it's so wrong

[00:04:14] Do we let it just go on

[00:04:17] Turn our backs and carry on

[00:04:20] Wake up for it's too late

[00:04:23] Right now we can't wait

[00:04:26] She won't have a second try

[00:04:29] Open up your hearts

[00:04:31] As well as your eyes
