'How Come, How Long'

作詞:Kenny Edmonds, Stevie Wonder

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
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
