how come how long

steve wonder ile baby face'in duet yaptigi dunyanin dokuzuncu harikasi olan (8. icin (bkz: how wonderful you are) olan parca iftiharla sözlerini yazarim ahanda burda ;

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 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

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, 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 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

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 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.

a-acayip bir hatunun, yanlış adama takılıp, hayatını mahvetmesini anlatan, konulu şarkı!

armonikanın bir gelinin gelinliğindeki taşlar gibi süslediği 90'ların son yarısına damgasını vurmuş balat. (bkz: stevie wonder)
