How Long Has This Been Going On Lyrics


As a tot, when I trotted in little velvet panties,
I was kissed by my sisters, my cousins, and my aunties.
Sad to tell, it was hell, an inferno worse than Dante's.So my dear I swore,
"Never, never more !"
On my list, I insisted that kissing must be crossed out.
Now, I find I was blind, and oh my! How I lost out!I could cry salty tears,
Where have I been all these years?
Little wow, tell me now:
How long has this been going on?There were chills up my spine,
And some thrills I can't define.
Listen, sweet, I repeat:
How long has this been going on?Oh, I feel that I could melt,
Into Heaven I'm hurled!
I know how Columbus felt,
Finding another world.Kiss me once, then once more.
What a dunce I was before.
What a break! For Heaven's sake!
How long has this been going on?Dear, when in your arms I creep,

That divine rendezvous,
Don't wake me, if I'm asleep,
Let me dream that it's true!Kiss me twice, then once more.
That makes thrice, let's make it four!
What a break! For Heaven's sake!
How long has this been going on?
How long has this, been going on?

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Chesney Henry "Chet" Baker Jr. (December 23, 1929 - May 13, 1988) was born in Yale, Oklahoma. A trumpet player, Baker was an important part of the West coast "cool jazz" school of the 1950s. He first came to prominence in the jazz world as part of the pianoless Gerry Mulligan Quartet -- Mulligan had played with Miles Davis, whose Birth of the Cool is recognized as ushering in the movement. Baker's trumpet playing is characterized by incredibly sweet tones, clear and almost vibrato-less.
