How Come, How Long - Babyface
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 kinda man

He abused her love and 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 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 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 might 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 beatin' 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 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
