How Long Lyrics


How does it make you feel when I say love is a battlefield?
Impartially concealed under heavy sword and shield
A casualty revealed, someone's wish fulfilled.
I'm breathing fire (Is my heart still beating?)
Mindless desire (I'm still unbelieving)
I'm breathing fire (Is my heart still beating?)
Mindless desire (How long have you been leaving?)
Hey, how long have you been leaving?
Somewhere along the way, I hoped you'd stay
You try to bear the blame, but something changed
You call it loud and clear, compel wounds to heal
I'm breathing fire (Is my heart still beating?)
Mindless desire (I'm still unbelieving)
I'm breathing fire (Is my heart still beating?)
Mindless desire (How long have you been leaving?)
Hey, how long have you been leaving?

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

One of the all-time giants of the Hammond B-3, Jimmy McGriff (April 3, 1936 -- May 24, 2008) sometimes gets lost amid all the great soul-jazz organists from his hometown of Philadelphia. He was almost certainly the bluesiest of the major soul-jazz pioneers, and indeed, he often insisted that he was more of a blues musician than a jazz artist; nonetheless, he remained eclectic enough to blur the lines of classification.
