How Long Has This Been Going On? - Jimmy Scott

I could cry salty tears

Where have I been all these years?

Little wow, tell me now

How long has this been goin' on?

There were chills up my spine

And some thrills I can’t define

Listen sweet, I repeat

How long has this been goin' 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 goin' on?

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 goin' on?
