How Long Has This Been Going On?(Album Version) - Charlie Byrd

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
