Karaoké How Come, How Long Babyface & Stevie Wonder

Hmm oh oh yeah oh yeah whoa

There was a girl I used to know she was oh so beautiful she's not here anymore

She had a college degree smart as anyone could be had so much to live for

But she fell in love with the wrong kind of 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 well

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 before 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

Ooh whoa yeah

She tried to give a cry for help she even blamed it 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 kind of 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 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

Oh oh yeah

I on occasion met that guy

Whoa extend the feelings deep inside

Ooh

Somethin' about it wasn't right

Oh-o-o-oh

The way he proves himself a man by beating his woman

With his hands

I wish that she had seen the light

Wooh

How can someone like this call themselves a man

He's not a man

Cos' in reality he's far more less than

And we cannot ignore

Wooh whenever we see the signs

Eh eh eh

Cos' any kind of abuse

God knows is a crime

How come

How long how long

It's not right

Not right so wrong

Do we let it just go on turn our backs and carry on

Wake up

Wake up it's too late it's too late

Right now

Oh can't wait can't wait

She won't have a second try

Open up your hearts as well as

Your eyes

Na na na na na

Yeah yeah yeah eh yeah

Whoa oh oh oh

Ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh da da da da da da da da da da
