Lyrics How Long Has This Been Going On (Remastered) - Lena Horne



′Neath the stars, at bazaars
Often I've had to caress men
Five or ten, dollars then, I′d collect from all those yes-men
Don't be sad, I must add, that they meant no more than chess-men
Darling, can't you see?
′Twas for charity?
Though these lips have made slips, it was never really serious
Who′d have thought, I'd be brought to a state that′s so delirious?
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?
(Spoken)
Kiss me twice, once more, thrice, make it four
What a break, for heaven′s sake
How long has this been goin′ on?
