Here is a karaoke version of the song How come how long with Babyface ft. Stevie Wonder. I have done this vid because it reminds me of a girl I know who had the same problem. I hope you'll enjoy this.

Här är en kareoke version av låten How come how long med Babyface ft Stevie Wonder. Jag har gjort denna videon för att den påminner mig om en tjej jag känner. Jag hoppas att du ska gilla den här videon.

LYRICS:
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 isn't right



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

  • yes ppl are evil well they can be and i feel like slamming them up

  • any man who beats his woman is nutin but a spineless bitch

  • This song always brings tears to my eyes. My brother is abusive, although everyone tends to ignore it. Luckily I managed to get out, not after my fair share of black bruises, a knife attack & almost being knocked unconscious. This proves that it's not only partners that are pricks, brothers can be too. And everyone always ignores me. I've intervened his relationships too by secrety talking to girlfriends to get them to leave, as I know what he is like. I dedicate this song to that monster

  • my all tyme favourite.....real music makers, hope yu all guyz are passing this gifted artistic genes to yur kids, i never want this kind of music to die, not like it will, just wonna make sure it stays....
