Text: Keyshia Cole. Long Way Down.
Baby--Baby--Baby--Baby
Baby it's a Long-Long-Long-Long-Long-Long Way Down,
Baby it's a Long-Long-Long-Long-Long-Long Way Down,
(Baby)
Baby it's a Long-Long-Long-Long-Long-Long Way Down,
Baby it's a Long-Long-Long-Long-Long-Long Way Down,
(ooh,ooh)
I'm young but I can't add the tracks of my tears from crying,
Broken hearts develop a fear-- of flying
I pray somebody take me higher, I've already fell for a liar,
Can't make the same mistake twice,
Then on a lonely night,
Just when I said (I said)--that I (that I)--was thru (was thru) with love, there he was,
(Yeah)
Telling me he saw my s-o-s,
That's when I said-- that I--was saving myself for true love, from above,
(Yeah)
And before I let you hurt me like the rest,
Don't show me how you kiss, or where the angels live,
You know it's a long way down from there,
Just to call it quits, cuz that ain't what love is,
You know it's a long way down from there,
Baby it's a Long-Long-Long-Long-Long-Long Way Down,
(Far from Heaven)
Baby it's a Long-Long-Long-Long-Long-Long Way Down
(Far from Heaven)
Already had me a cheater and mistreater,
Already been with a flosser and smooth talker,
I've had a betrayer something like a player, but that ain't what I want no more,
(What you looking for?)
Come get my loving don't date me for your reputation,
If you ain't made a decision not to keep it pimping (no)
Keep it moving; don't even waste your time,
Cuz I don't want you wasting mine,
When I said (I said)--that I (that I)--was thru (was thru) with love, there he was,
(Yeah)
Telling me he saw my s-o-s,
That's when I said-- that I--was saving myself for true love, from above,
(Yeah)
But before I let you hurt me like the rest, boy,
Don't show me how you kiss, or where the angels live,
You know it's a long way down from there,
Just to call it quits, cuz that ain't what love is,
You know it's a long way down from there,
Baby it's a Long-Long-Long-Long-Long-Long Way Down,
(Far from Heaven)
Baby it's a Long-Long-Long-Long-Long-Long Way Down
(Far from Heaven)
I know, some--times you don't know, the one be--fore you be the right one,
But I know--you're the right one for me, and if you know--I'm the right one for you,
Baby slow jam, throw your hands up and lets dance don't wait any longer,
(Don't Wait, Don't Wait)
But if ain't real,
Don't show me how you kiss, or where the angels live,
You know it's a long way down from there,
Just to call it quits, cuz that ain't what love is,
You know it's a long way down from there,
Baby it's a Long-Long-Long-Long-Long-Long Way Down,
(Far from Heaven)
Baby it's a Long-Long-Long-Long-Long-Long Way Down
(I don't wanna hurt no more)
