How Come, How Long

Babyface

Intro: (2 times) 1. 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 Bridge 1: But she fell in love With the wrong kinda 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 Chorus: 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 Interlude: 2. 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 why we'd like to tell ourselves But not! It wasn't that way Bridge 2: So she fell in love With the wrong kinda of man And she paid with her life For loving that man So we can not ignore We must look for the signs And maybe next time we might save somebody's life >>Chorus<< Solo: (2 times) 3. 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 >>Bridge 1<< >>Chorus<< Coda:
