How Come, How Long - Soul Groove
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 kind of man
And he abused her love 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
Herself On 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 look for the signs
And maybe next time we may 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 heart as well as your eyes
I on occasion met that guy
He stirred up feeling deep inside
Something about him wasn't right
The way he proves himself a man
By beating his woman with his hands
Oh I wish that she was still alive
How can someone like
That call himself a man he's not a man
'Cause in reality he's far more less than that
And we cannot ignore at all
Whenever we see the signs
'Cause any kind 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
