How Long Lyrics
Well your friends with their fancy persuasion
Don't admit that it's part of a scheme
But I can't help but have my suspicion
Cause I ain't quite as dumb as I seem
Well you said you were never intending
To break up our scene in this way
But there ain't any use in pretending
It could happen to us any day
How long has this been going on?
How long has this been going on?
Don't admit that it's part of a scheme
But I can't help but have my suspicion
Cause I ain't quite as dumb as I seem
To break up our scene in this way
But there ain't any use in pretending
It could happen to us any day
How long has this been going on?

The first example of how smooth a singer Paul Carrack is. If this guy would only self promote more he would be one of the most popular singers in history instead of the anonymous voice behind so many hit songs by so many different groups.
totally agree with you scoonman. Paul is one of the best singers I´ve ever heard and it´s a pity he can´t have a career in keeping with his voice quality.
Paul Carrack is an under-rated musical genius. If he had a huge ego he would have put his name on his best work instead of sharing it with artists like Ace, Squeeze, Mike + the Mechanics, the Pretenders, Elton John, etc. This song is obviously about cheating, but not like you would think. When Paul sang lead for ACE back in the 70's he learned that the bassist, Terry Comer, was sneaking out and playing for other bands.
