Song Lyrics

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 through (was through) 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, 'cause 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,
(falling from heaven)
Baby it's a long-long-long-long-long-long way down
(falling 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,
'Cause I don't want you wasting mine

When I said (I said) that I (that I)
Was through (was through) 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, 'cause 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,
(falling from heaven)
Baby it's a long-long-long-long-long-long way down
(falling 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, 'cause 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,
(falling from heaven)
Baby it's a long-long-long-long-long-long way down

(I don't wanna hurt no more)

You know it's a long way down from there
You know it's a long way down from there
(long way down)
(long way down)
