How Come How Long - Stevie Wonder[00:00:00]
There was a girl I used to know [00:00:24]
She was oh so beautiful[00:00:27]
But she's not here anymore [00:00:30]
She had a college degree[00:00:36]
Smart as anyone could be [00:00:39]
She had so much to live for[00:00:42]
But she fell in love with the wrong kind of man[00:00:47]
And he abused her love treated her so bad[00:00:53]
There was not enough education in her world[00:00:58]
That could save the life of this little girl[00:01:04]
How come how long [00:01:11]
It's not right it's so wrong[00:01:13]
Do we let it just go on [00:01:16]
Turn our backs and carry on[00:01:19]
Wake up for it's too late [00:01:22]
Right now we can't wait[00:01:25]
She won't have a second try [00:01:28]
Open up your hearts as well as your eyes[00:01:31]
She tried to give a cry for help [00:01:47]
She even blamed things[00:01:50]
Herself On but no one came to her aid[00:01:52]
Nothing was wrong as far as we could tell[00:01:58]
That's what we'd like to tell ourselves [00:02:02]
But no it wasn't that way[00:02:05]
So she fell in love with the wrong kinda man[00:02:09]
And she paid with her life for loving that man[00:02:15]
So we cannot ignore we must look for the signs[00:02:21]
And maybe next time [00:02:28]
We may save somebody's life[00:02:30]
How come how long [00:02:34]
It's not right it's so wrong[00:02:36]
Do we let it just go on [00:02:39]
Turn our backs and carry on[00:02:42]
Wake up for it's too late [00:02:45]
Right now we can't wait[00:02:48]
She won't have a second try [00:02:51]
Open up your heart as well as your eyes[00:02:54]
I on occasion met that guy[00:03:21]
He stirred up feeling deep inside [00:03:25]
Something about him wasn't right[00:03:28]
The way he proves himself a man[00:03:34]
By beatin' his woman with his hands [00:03:37]
Oh I wish that she was still alive[00:03:40]
How can someone like that call himself a man [00:03:44]
He's not a man[00:03:49]
'Cause in reality he's far more less than that[00:03:50]
And we cannot ignore at all [00:03:56]
Whenever we see the signs[00:03:59]
'Cause any kind of abuse [00:04:02]
God knows is a crime[00:04:04]
How come how long [00:04:08]
It's not right it's so wrong[00:04:11]
Do we let it just go on [00:04:14]
Turn our backs and carry on[00:04:17]
Wake up for it's too late [00:04:20]
Right now we can't wait[00:04:23]
She won't have a second try [00:04:26]
Open up your hearts as well as your eyes[00:04:29]
